Projects & Pricing

At Cofactor, we understand that sequencing data alone does not provide the answers that can lead to breakthrough discoveries or publications. It requires a keen understanding of how best to design an experiment, how to sequence and on what platforms, how to best construct useful libraries for your application, and of course, apply the analysis and bioinformatics to understand it all in the context of your work.

Based on our extensive Next-Gen experience and working with low sequencing minimums, Cofactor can provide you one run composed of multiple experiments or multiple samples. We take the guesswork out of figuring out what platform to utilize for a particular sequencing goal. With over 20 years of Next-Gen sequencing expertise, Cofactor offers truly professional advice to allow you to push the boundaries of science and stay competitive by making the leap from genes and markers to genomics, systems biology, and population genomics.

In recent years, there has been an explosion in the types of sequencing applications and platforms available. Thus, it would be impossible for us to provide an exhaustive price list for each of the 800+ sequencing projects we have completed. That’s why we customize each and every quote to ensure that you get the absolute best value to meet your needs. 

At Cofactor Genomics, we are committed to delivering timely and accurate quotes customized to each researcher’s project. We can accommodate a variety of library types, sequencing platforms, read formats, data analysis options, and time-lines, and have different prices for all of these variables. Therefore, to facilitate an accurate and timely quote, we encourage researchers to provide as much information upfront regarding their research and project goals as possible. If we need more information to provide pricing, we will follow up promptly.  In many instances, it is not uncommon for us to provide multiple pricing estimates for multiple options as we work with a researcher to establish the best solution for their project.
