Genomics & Nucleomics

Dark room full of equipment at the VIB Nucleomics Core
The VIB Nucleomics Core

We're here to support your research with our genomics and nucleomics expertise.

Through both our host institutes, VIB and KU Leuven, there is access to next-generation sequencing technologies and analysis. There are personalized expert services available for expression analysis, RNA and DNA sequencing, including both short (Illumina) and long read sequencing (Pacific Biosciences and Oxford Nanopore) technologies.

In the Spotlight
