For users without prior experience in single-cell sequencing or spatial transcriptomics analyses we recommend a project meeting where we can discuss about your project and decide the most suitable analysis method for it. Contact us for more information.
Register and sign in to online project management system iLab and submit a Service Request. Follow the general instructions for iLab use or contact us to get help with iLab and Service Request submission.
Single-cell sequencing services: Available analysis slots can be viewed in iLab Booking calendars. Make a reservation by contacting the SCA unit via your submitted iLab Service Request.
Spatial transcriptomics services: Agree on the sample delivery by contacting the SCA unit via your submitted iLab Service Request.
On the day of the experiment, send us updates on your sample delivery schedule. Both email and mobile phone messages work.
Preparation of Illumina short read sequencing ready sample libraries and Next Generation Sequencing in FIMM SCA and Genomics Sequencing units.
Generation of raw sequence files and pipeline analysis performed in FIMM SCA unit.
You will receive a data release email via iLab that contains information about the performed analysis as well as data location and access.
To help us secure our support from University of Helsinki (HiLIFE) and Biocenter Finland in the future, we ask all users of FIMM SCA and Genomics Sequencing unit services to acknowledge us in publications containing data produced in the units.
The condition and viability of the cells strongly affects the quality of the single-cell sequencing data.
Optimization of the tissue dissociation and processing may be needed prior single-cell sequencing analysis.
