An avant-garde study of the uncommon KSHV-associated inflammatory cytokine syndrome. This paper was newly published in the Virology Journal at the beginning of this month.

Quality Control plots for sequencing runs done in house by Vironomics Core’s on the Ion Torrent S5    

An example of a recent custom single-cell sequencing project that we assisted with. It included a large number of UNC collaborations including: Dr. De Paris lab, UNC Flow Cytometry Core, UNC Vironomics Core, and UNC HTSF. At this year’s Research Triangle Cytometry Association Meeting in January, Department of Microbiology and...

From July 2015-Feb 2017, the number of successful sequencing runs we’ve done in-house, generally with 1-2 staff.  

The UNC Vironomics (viral genomics) Core aims to facilitate ZIKV research projects at UNC, from translational research, to animal studies, to high-throughput screening. Original CFAC proprosal See full story here

The 2015 QC plots are available for the 454 (updated) and the Ion Torrent PGM (new) With a lot more runs for the 454 GSJunior, we have updated our QC plot for 2015: Unfortunately, the 700+ basepair runs are no longer supported. However, an average of >100,000 thousand reads with...

The AmpliSeq library prep and/or emPCR to sequencing chip loading is now available via an automated platform in the Vironomics Core. This will enable less hands-on-time and error and the ability to do 4 or 8 AmpliSeq automatically.
