Single-cell RNA sequencing: the Ultimate Guide
As a scientist, you have probably come across the use of single-cell sequencing in your field. But what is it exactly? And also how can you apply it to your research, which technology should you choose, and what do you need to think about before starting your project? This ultimate guide to single-cell RNA sequencing…
How much does single-cell sequencing cost?
Single-cell sequencing can be expensive, especially when compared to conventional bulk RNA sequencing methods. But there is a good reason why this technology is expensive, and you can mitigate these costs if you carefully consider the design of your experiment.

Celebrating 2 years of single-cell sequencing services
It has been two years since we generated single-cell sequencing libraries for our first customer on June 11, 2018. We have had a great start: we grew from just 2 founders to a team to 10, have processed more than 1 million cells, and serviced customers in 12 different countries (and counting). See the infographic below…
RNA sequencing contributes to new understanding of SARS-CoV-2 in intestinal organoids
A collaborative study of Dutch research groups shows -for the first time- that the SARS-CoV-2 virus is able to infect gut organoids. This research was done at the Hubrecht Institute in Utrecht, the Erasmus MC in Rotterdam and Maastricht University. The results were published last Friday in Science. While the lungs seem to be the predominantly…
