General Information
The Genomics Core at the Center for Genetic Medicine (Northwestern University) is a shared resource facility for affiliated institutions investigators as well as external organizations. The facility provides a wide range of sequencing, genotyping and gene expression profiling.
Perform NGS sequencing in-house. They outsource their Sanger samples to ACGT.
