The Centre for Biodiversity Genomics has received a $650,000 CDN award to obtain a Sequel II System. Its acquisition will benefit all members of the iBOL Consortium by providing the advantages of SMRT Sequencing and making it more affordable for scientists to drive discovery with comprehensive views of genomes and transcriptomes.
This award was funded by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation.
The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation fosters path-breaking scientific discovery, environmental conservation, patient care improvements and preservation of the special character of the Bay Area.
