The UR Genomics Research Center (GRC), located at the James P. Wilmot Cancer Institute, provides core laboratory support, technical consultation, assistance with experimental design and data analysis for investigators using high-throughput genomic sequencing, genotyping and gene expression in their research programs.
The URGRC currently provides support for RNA-Seq, ATAC-seq, ChIP-Seq, Single Cell RNA-seq, Spatial Transcriptomics, Exome/Genome sequencing, Whole Genome and Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS, RRBS), 16S rRNA Sequencing, Small RNA-Seq, Metatranscriptomics, qRT-PCR, processing of RNA/DNA, as well as custom applications and approaches. Bioinformatic analysis support is also available.

Eppendorf 5075 epMotion Automated Liquid Handling System
System provides precise, accurate alternative to time-consuming manual pipetting and liquid handling tasks. The combination of accelerated operational speed, new software & hardware features and an increased number of worktable positions make the systems best for and flexible laboratory use across a wide range of liquid handling applications. To ensure easy and consistent use, epMotion 5075 employs both Eppendorf's established epBlue software and an new software assistant concept. This supports the programming of applications and ensures that all users can use the system with only initial training. In addition, novel features such as a new CleanCap option, including UV light decontamination and a HEPA filter for purified air, offer new standards of decontamination and sample safety. This is supported even further by an optical sensor that checks labware, liquid levels and tip counts and type at the start of each cycle, hugely decreasing any risk of error during the run.
