Collaboration and Partnership

Over the last two decades, The Centre for Genomic Research (CGR) has established partnerships and collaborations across life sciences.

The CGR is a hub of expertise that provides our collaborators and partners with the tools to advance their projects.

The CGR has established long-term partnerships with the major manufacturers in the genomics area, allowing them to participate in the early access programme and access the kits before they are widely available.

This collaboration has allowed us to optimise and implement laboratory and informatics pipelines and keep the cutting edge status of the Centre.

We are driven by innovation and we constantly upgrade our platforms to offer the additional capability and the earliest technologies available on the market.

The CGR is a certified provider for Illumina and PacBio platforms.
