TheIntegrated Genomics Shared Resourceat theGeorgia Cancer Centerprovides state-of-the-art technologies forDNA and RNA sequencingas well asspatial transcriptomics.
We offer a comprehensive suite of services, includingsample processingforfresh, frozen, and fixed cells or tissues,library preparation, andnext-generation sequencing (NGS)for bothbulk DNA/RNA sequencingandsingle-cell/nuclei sequencing. Forsingle-cell studies, we utilize theChromium X systemfrom10X Genomics. Our sequencing platforms, theIlluminaNovaSeq6000andNextSeq500, enablehigh-throughput, efficient sequencingfor a wide range of applications.
We have introducedsingle-cell spatial transcriptomicsusing theCosMxSMI platform, providing investigators with the ability to analyzesingle cells within their native tissue microenvironment. Additionally, we supportspatial transcriptomicswith theCytAssistinstrumentfrom10X GenomicsforVisiumspatial profiling.
Fornucleic acid and protein extraction, we utilize theQIAconnectsystemfromQiagen, ensuring high-quality sample preparation for downstream analyses.
Research Resource Identifier
To better track our publication history and ensure proper recognition, the Integrated Genomics Core has registered for a Research Resource Identifier (RRID) throughRRID Portal.
RRIDs are unique identifiers assigned to research tools, core facilities, model organisms, antibodies, and other scientific resources. Including an RRID in publications enhances transparency, reproducibility, and proper attribution, helping to track resource usage and increase visibility within the scientific community.
Researchers using the core are asked to include an acknowledgment statement in their manuscripts. If core members have provided significant scientific contributions, they should also be considered for co-authorship.
Please modify this acknowledgment statement as needed but ensure the RRID is included:"We acknowledge the support and contribution of the Integrated Genomics Core Shared Resources at the Georgia Cancer Center, Augusta University (RRID: SCR_026483)."
