It’s #NationalDNADay , a day that celebrates the discovery and profound impact DNA has made on scientific advances 🧬 At Birch Aquarium, students can discover the fascinating world of seahorse genetics during our Diving into DNA Discovery Lab funded by Illumina!

Come along with us as we interview Illumina employees and find out what they do in honor of DNA Day 🧬 #DNADay #DNADay 2024 #Biotech #Biotech Jobs

Empower your lab with ultimate flexibility now possible through 14 kit configurations across 4 flow cells. Learn how NextSeq 2000 supports virtually any sequencing application: ilmn.ly/3JlcuOZ

The Medical Genome Initiative is a consortium working to expand access to high-quality genomic sequencing. A recent meta-analysis of 71 papers produced significant evidence that genomic sequencing excels as a Dx test for rare genetic diseases. bit.ly/3JGaAZv

Researchers at John Curtin School of Medical Research, ANU discovered a gene mutation that causes psoriasis – a chronic skin disease that causes red, scaly patches. How does this disease develop into psoriatic arthritis in some individuals and what will it mean for the future of care? bit.ly/43MMVzO

More labs and even nationwide health systems are adopting WGS for cancer. Learn why it can have an advantage over other methods, and what’s next for MRD testing. #AACR24 bit.ly/4anmNh4

Discover how PrimateAI-3D is revolutionizing variant interpretation and advancing precision medicine. Join Dr. Kyle Farh as he delves into the world of genomic AI on the latest mendelspod episode: bit.ly/4an8XeT

We are proud to join Ambry Genetics, Myriad Genetics, Quest Diagnostics Oncology, Volpara Health, AliveAndKickn, and @FacingOurRisk to help increase evidence-based access to genetic testing for people with or at risk of hereditary cancers.

With Illumina Connected Annotations, researchers now have a powerful genomic reference tool built into Emedgene and DRAGEN, helping improve the speed and accuracy of HGVS notations. Learn more: bit.ly/43Gsc0c

Heart disease, the leading cause of death in the US, kills 1 person every 33 seconds. At @theACMG, Illumina scientist Sam Strom presented findings on a new method to measure VNTR in the gene encoding #lipoprotein a—a key player in cardio health. Article: bit.ly/3PptlU4

Researchers identified the DEK gene is potentially linked to degeneration of the brain neurons most vulnerable in early Alzheimer’s disease. Targeting DEK could prevent memory loss by protecting these critical memory-forming neurons. bit.ly/3Pq4mA2

Introducing the new P4 flow cell. Offering 1.8B reads and 50% more output, the NextSeq 2000 is pushing the boundaries for benchtop sequencers.

Make your ambitious research a reality: bit.ly/3IEpCyb

A Biobank of the Americas: How Galatea Bio is setting its sights on 10 million DNA samples to expand the diversity of genetic datasets, understand disparities and improve health outcomes. bit.ly/49VoCls

In a Q&A session during Rare Disease Week, Courtney Felle, the advocacy leader of YARR at @everylifeorg, shares insights on the diagnostic journey, healthcare access, and why young adults' voices matter. Learn more: bit.ly/3uWCL2A #Advocacy #RareDisease

Our global teams celebrated #IWD with insightful panel discussions and networking events about gender equity and fostering an inclusive workplace culture. Thank you to all who contributed! Here's to supporting women—today and every day. #IWD 2024 #InspireInclusion #IlluminaProud

Highlights from the San Diego Festival of Science & Engineering, where 160 Illumina employees volunteered to help 17,000+ K–12 students & their families learn about #genomics , fostering the scientists of tomorrow. Kudos to Generation STEAM | SDFSE for making it all happen! #STEM #Genomics4All
