Taking your single-cell sequencing to new lengths with Oxford Nanopore

The analysis of genomic heterogeneity at the single-cell level has provided new insights into many research areas, including cancer research, cell development and function, and immunology. However, the use of short-read sequencing limits the ability to identify isoforms, alternative splicing, variants and other biologically important features. Nanopore sequencing resolves this challenge by enabling the analysis of full-length transcripts to gain a deeper understanding of complex biology.

This webinar provides insight into the implementation of long-read single-cell sequencing – from library preparation to data analysis – with in-house experts from Oxford Nanopore.
