Equipment​

The CG platform has access to specialized equipment and analytical frameworks that enable us to introduce new high-throughput techniques into healthcare. 

We continuously explore emerging genomics technologies to facilitate the integration of genomics-based precision diagnostics and precision medicine in Sweden. Please note that only relevant equipment is listed and not all listed equipment is available for access service (User access service refers to a service that some nodes provide, where users, after receiving proper training and accreditation, are granted access to the equipment to operate it independently) Contact us if you have any enquiries regarding our capabilities.
