About the Centre
The Centre for Genomic Research (CGR) is a core research facility at the University of Liverpool, providing multi-platform sequencing, library preparation, and data analysis services to researchers across the University, external academic institutions, and industry partners. The CGR operates on a cost-recovery basis as part of the University of Liverpool’s shared research infrastructure. Our goal is to support researchers in generating high-quality genomics data through a combination of advanced sequencing platforms and expert scientific support. Unlike many commercial sequencing providers, we work directly with collaborators to discuss study design, assess sample quality, and troubleshoot challenges where they arise. If QC issues occur, we will work with you to identify solutions or replacement strategies rather than simply discarding samples.
