Collaborations
ServiceXS is service provider for genomic laboratory services since 2002. Not only do we offer service-for-fee, but we also participate in research and development projects, aimed at future extensions of our service portfolio.
ServiceXS is and was actively involved in a number of national and international collaborations and consortia. Examples of our current and past collaborations:
|
DeCoDe: Decrease Colorectal Cancer Death - researching copy number variation in rectal carcinoma tumours. We perform genotyping experiments on the Illumina and Fluidigm platforms. The CTMM-DeCoDe project was initiated in 2008 and will last for 5 years. |
|
|
EarlyNutrition: Long term effects of early nutrition on later health. ServiceXS' focus will be on the epigenetics. We will perform methylation analysis experiments using the Illumina HumanMethylation450K BeadChip. | |
|
FAST-SEQ: Focused Analysis of Solid Tumor material by single molecule SEQuencing. The project will consist of mutation detection in FFPE tumor material. ServiceXS is the network coordinator of this project which will last till 2014. | |
|
GenoMEL: A consortium researching melanoma genetics. ServiceXS performed high-throughput genotyping experiments on melanoma tissues. This project yielded multiple Nature Genetics publications and ended in 2011. | |
|
IDEAL: Integrated research on developmental determinants of Aging and Longevity - search for biomarkers determining longivity. ServiceXS will perform high throughput experiments on the Fluidigm PCR platform, Affymetrix microarray analysis, and Next Generation Sequencing. | |
|
NewMood: An Europan consortium for translational research in depression. Although ServiceXS was officially not a full partner, we were involved in many aspects of this collaboration. | |
|
NIRM: the Netherlands Institute for Regenerative Medicine. NIRM combines cutting-edge research in stem cell biology with advances in tissue engineering, so as to improve existing and create novel regenerative medical treatments. | |
|
PGR secure: Novel characterization of crop wild relative and landrace resources as a basis for improved crop breeding. This project is focused on sequencing Brassica species and the detection and analysis of SNPs in 15 different Brassica species. | |
|
PRONEST: Prostate research - detection of translocation breakpoints in prostate cancer. We perform data analysis of Next Generation Sequencing data to find these breakpoints. PRONEST started in 2009 and will last for 4 years. |
