Illumina RNA Library Preparation Lab Course

Join our 2-day in-person training course and learn how to produce short-read sequencing libraries from RNA samples using established Illumina technology and hear directly from our experts about your sequencing options.

Registration is OPEN 

Overview

In this course you will learn how to produce sequencing libraries using the new RNA ligation library preparation kits from Illumina, which provide a quick and simple work-flow for library production. You will get to work on both a high-quality training sample and have the opportunity to bring your own RNA sample for library preparation and sequencing. This course assumes you have a basic level of laboratory experience in a molecular biology lab, although experienced demonstrators will always be on hand to guide you. If you have limited lab experience, please indicate this on the registration form and we will try to accommodate you.
