The aim is to detect genetic abnormalities to improve patient care. This equipment will be used for the benefit of patients with genetic disease or cancer.
A project supported by ARS Hauts-de-France in collaboration with the CHU Amiens-Picardie.

After 10 years of collaboration between the Lille University Hospital and Evosciences, we are particularly happy to support this initiative. A very high speed Illumina NovaSeq 6000 sequencer financed with a flexible rental solution through Evosciences.

The goal of the Department of Biology and Genetic Pathology is to detect genetic abnormalities and improve the management of patients with genetic diseases or cancer by systematic analysis of the exome.
