Yesterday Cofactor was featured on GenomeWeb's In Sequence blog (log-in required) for our new sequencer trade-in program. Labs are able to trade-in their sequencers for a defined service agreement with Cofactor. This would provide labs dedicated capacity on any of Cofactor's Sequencing platforms and access to all vetted molecular protocols, analysis and visualization...

We mentioned a few weeks ago how ActiveSite is going to move from a premier bioinformatics suite to a home for your project end-to-end, and here's the first step: project tracking.
Because next-gen projects are still measured in weeks, we feel that communication with our clients is important. Acting as an extension of your lab, we want you to be able to track and understand exactly...

We care about all of the details in a project here at Cofactor. From the experimental design, all the way through the analysis, the way we conduct the science behind your project is constantly evaluated and improved. But we also know that the way you actually receive your data is important. It's why we've worked on ActiveSite. And ActiveSite is perfect for delivering project analysis. But...
