The Waksman Genomics Core Facility (WGCF) is a professional service organization, under Waksman Institute of Microbiology Rutgers University, providing research community with the tools of advanced sequencing technology, and is powered by a highly trained and qualified staff.
Equipped with NextSeq500, MiSeq, and Ion Proton, we have successfully performed de novo genome sequencing, genome resequencing, ChIP-Seq and RNA-seq for numerous local investigators from the Waksman Institute of Microbiology, other units of Rutgers University and Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, as well as researchers from other institutions on a fee-per-service basis. In our lab, we will perform library construction, template preparation and sequencing of the libraries or provide training in library preparation methods to the personnel in your laboratory to ensure that they can produce high-quality sequencing libraries. We also perform procedures to enrich or remove polyadenylated RNA, rRNA and/or tRNA for the users of our facility as needed.
In addition, WGCF provides bioinformatics support for project. WGCF Bioinformatics staff member is available to consult with you during research project and extramural proposal development in order to assemble a realistic data management and analysis plan before selecting samples and initiating data collection. We will also assist you with developing your own data processing capabilities, in addition to providing direct bioinformatics support on a fee for service basis.

The Molecular Resource Facility at New Jersey Medical School was established to provide state of the art services for molecular biology to the medical school and other research laboratories in Newark and beyond. Our main focus is DNA sequencing and includes capillary and high throughput services. We also provide single cell sequencing services using 10X genomics and Drop-Seq platforms. We also provide many other services including Luminex, oligonucleotide synthesis (IDT), HPLC analysis and purification, real time PCR and others.
