Next Generation Sequencing
Our team is uniquely
experienced in the development and use of DNA sequencing technologies, including
having a patent holder of the 
industry-standard four-color automated sequencers
as well as knowing well the groups developing many of the so-called Next-gen
platforms. It is clear that each has its strengths and weakness and that
any one's value is very dependent on the context of its use. In other
words, a simple cost-per-raw-base calculation is not of much help when you are
trying to figure out which platform can deliver the lowest cost-per-project
along with the best results for the particular science or service you have in
mind. Let us bring to bear this experience, connections and breadth of scientific knowledge
for you. We can provide a bias-free analysis of your needs and how these
can or can not be met by the new platforms. Contact
us and we can work together to move you closer to achieving your goals.
Application Development Using Microsoft Office 2007
Our team has been working with
Microsoft for over five years on developing a strategy for using various of the
Microsoft software applications, such as Word, Excel and Sharepoint, as means to
both develop and deliver commercial and in-house developed software tools.
For example, how often do you open an application and see a spreadsheet model
used to deliver your results - only to have to use an Export function to get
these data into Excel so you can use the robust formatting, sorting, statistical
and graphical tools that Excel provide natively? What if the data was
delivered directly in Excel in the first place? The new Office 2007 not
only provides a standards-based XML data model, but robust ways to embed the
functionality of Office into other applications. We think this can be a great
and economical way to develop powerful new applications while adhering to a
standards model. We can help you better understand the way to use these
resources in your development efforts. Contact
us and we can work together to move you closer to achieving your goals.
