Access to the latest sequencing instruments
Illumina releases new sequencing instruments and hardware upgrades every other year. Using the
latest Illumina sequencing technology can give you up to 40% more reads and reduce project
turnaround times by weeks. Most CROs can't update their instruments every year. Genohub's large
network of unique service providers ensures that you always have access to the latest
high-throughput instruments.
One relationship
A single partnership with Genohub is all that's needed. You receive instant access to our network
of vetted NGS service providers, while your organization only has to deal with a single entity
for service terms and payments. Most institutions prefer working with one CRO to reduce purchase
order paperwork. With Genohub you can do that without limiting your choices.
Faster turnaround times
Working with a large team of partnering service providers, we're able to quickly find open
sequencing capacity. This means much faster turnaround times, e.g. 1-2 weeks instead of 3-4
weeks. Our fastest service gives you sequencing data in 3 days.
Quality and turnaround time guaranteed
We actively supervise your projects and help resolve issues that arise. Providers perform better
when Genohub has your back and they don't get paid until the project is completed to your
satisfaction. We also guarantee turnaround time, if a provider doesn't deliver on time you're
eligible for a refund that's up to 25% of the total project amount.
Instant quotations
Use our online interface to get instant project prices and turnaround times. Submit your request
online to take advantage of our internal system to quickly find and fill open sequencing
capacity. Most formal quotes are available within a couple hours after you submit a request.
Partnering service providers
You know exactly who you're working with. All our academic and commercial partners are carefully
selected by our scientific staff and rated by researchers each time a project is complete. While
most providers have experience with DNA library preparation and analysis, you may need someone
experienced to handle low input RNA-seq projects or specialty applications such as Ribo-seq,
Bisulfite-seq and Custom targeted amplicon sequencing. We'll discuss and define your project
parameters and then recommend the provider that has the most experience with your application.
Scientific staff with NGS experience
Our scientific staff keeps up to date with the latest library prep and sequencing technology.
They are available to help you find the right service for your project and make recommendations
when you need them. We offer free scientific consultation to help define your project and are
happy to recommend the provider most experienced in your application. We remain proactive until
the project is complete and you're satisfied with the deliverables.
Track and manage your projects
Our secure online project management tools allow you and your collaborators to easily accept
quotes, track your project, communicate with the provider and share files. All your
project-related information is protected by our strict confidentiality policy.
Secure and reliable NGS data storage and transfer
You no longer need to worry about data hand-off and retention policies. Each Genohub project
is allocated a private data storage bucket with secure access keys. Genohub project buckets
include free unlimited storage and transfer for 3 months, fast, multi-threaded download and
upload,
with checksums to validate data integrity. It's never been easier to share data with a
colleague.
