Webinars by BGI Genomics

---

In this webinar you will learn common quality challenges with DNA sample preparation in WGS, research goals and coverage requirement, common questions regarding WGS bioinformatic analysis and more.

In this webinar BGI’s RNA Project Expert draws from her decade of experience managing 1000s of RNA sequencing projects and gives a comprehensive overview of RNA sequencing.

Genetic diversity of SARS-CoV-2 from evolutionary analysis. Sequencing solutions and research strategies about the molecular epidemiology for clinical research, vaccine development and drug R&D.

Advanced and intuitive multi-omics data visualisation system for efficient analysis and discovery: "Dr. Tom"

Introduction of single cell sequencing, available technologies and their respective advantages. Combining 10X Genomics technology and DNBSEQ™ Sequencing Technology for highly cost-efficient single cell sequencing, with a real world case study of data example.

Different quantitative proteomics approaches, with common questions and challenges in proteomics experiment design.

Join Dr. Longqi Liu to discover COVID-19 pathogenic mechanisms, based on a Single-Cell transcriptomic atlas of non-human primate tissues generated by MGI's high-throughput sequencing platform DNBelab C4 Pocket Single-Cell Lab. 

Introduction of MGI global Service Centres. With rapid international expansion of the service and support teams, MGI is committed to providing the best product experience for customers everywhere. 

MGI’s disruptive DNA Nanoball Sequencing (DNBSEQ) platforms generate high quality data for a variety of applications. Hear from Canada’s genomics leaders at BC Cancer's Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre, University of British Columbia, and McGill Genome Centre on their experiences with MGIDNBSEQ platforms.

DNBSEQ-T7 has achieved major breakthroughs: the first 4-chip sequencing platform, completing PE150 at full load within 24 hours, generating 6Tb of data per day, and completing up to 60 whole human genomes per day. MGI presents the cancer genetic testing experience based on DNBSEQ-T7.

Recent COVID-19 publications based on applications of MGI high-throughput sequencing platforms and discuss novel topics e.g. evolution of SARS-CoV-2 separately from SARS, similar infection mode of COVID-19 to SARS, potential immune mechanism. 

MGI's DNBSEQ-G50 sequencer now has a major upgrade, with improvements to flexibility, turnaround time and performance. Check out these new improvements.

The webinar discusses:  

• A introduction to MGI (00:00) 
• MGI single stranded circular library (05:24) 
• The generation and loading of DNA nanoball (07:37) 
• Combinatorial probe anchor synthesis (18:01) 
• The basic data analysis workflow (23:23) 

In this webinar, MGI introduces single-tube long fragment read (stLFR), a technology that enables sequencing of data from long DNA molecules using economical second-generation sequencing technology. It was demonstrated that how stLFR brings a drastic improvement of de novo assembly results for several economically important plant and pest genomes with short-read sequencing technology on the MGISEQ-2000.

This webinar introduces MGI sequencing platform library construction methods and tools, sequencing strategy, depth calculation and cost, and bioinformatics analysis tools. 

• 00:00 – 20:24: Intro&experimental design based on MGI platform 
• 20:24 – 33:55: WGS library preparation workflow 
• 33:55 – 34:54: Summary 
• 34:54 – End:  How to find the resources?

This webinar introduces both PGS (Preimplantation Genetic Screening) for detecting embryonic chromosomal CNVs and PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis) for inherited monogenic diseases with haplotype phasing. The integration and customization of these two tests as an one-stop solution s showcased, including: sample preparation, library preparation, sequencing, data analysis, and reporting. 

This webinar introduces quality control key points on DNBSEQ platform, including sample QC, fragmented DNA QC, PCR products QC and DNA nanoball QC. In addition, it also introduces MGI's flagship product DNBSEQ-G400RS genetic sequencer, e.g. preparation of sequencing reagents as well as best practices and UI demo on it.
