‘Discovery Research’

A Laboratorytalk guide

Start with the news release Roche performs targeted sequencing in maize genome from Roche Nimblegen, which we summarised at the time by saying "Researchers from Iowa State, Minnesota and Florida universities and Roche Nimblegen have published a method to perform targeted sequencing in the highly complex maize genome. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release University adopts Biotracker Lims for automation from Ocimum Biosolutions: "Ocimum Biosolutions has announced that its Biotracker Lims has been selected by the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center as its standard for the automation of its Research Core Facilities. ".
 
In March 2010, we covered the news from Thermo Fisher Scientific (UK) - take a look at Thermo Fisher equips Scotmet facility which says: "Thermo Fisher Scientific has announced it is providing the Scottish Metabolomics Facility (Scotmet) with technology to advance the field of metabolomics. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Jeol USA, Atomic resolution microscope aids nano research, as well as Asylum Research demonstrates MFP-3D AFM from Asylum Research, and LGC displays reference materials at Analytica from LGC.
