ABSTRACT
:The Affymetrix Seminars

Affymetrix is dedicated to developing state-of-the-art technology for acquiring, analyzing, and managing complex genetic information for use in biomedical research. The Company began independent operations in Santa Clara, California in 1993. Affymetrix is a market leader in creating breakthrough tools that are driving the genomic revolution. By applying the principles of semiconductor technology to the life sciences, Affymetrix develops and commercializes systems that help scientists alleviate human suffering and improve the quality of life.

Learn about our manufacturing process, the importance of sensitivity/specificity, and applications in RNA and DNA analysis: gene expression, genotyping and re-sequencing. We offer a variety of catalog whole genome gene expression products (human, mouse, rat, plus prokaryotic organisms) and flexible custom array formats. Our DNA Analysis products include the new Mapping 10K SNP array (analyzes over 11,000 SNPS) and the CustomSeq re-sequencing arrays (re-sequence 30KB on a single array). Examples of current applications will be provided.

The first in a series of Affymetrix seminars, this will be in the category of an introductory seminar. Please let any others who may be interested know. Also bring any questions you may have for Ray. -- Darrell Mallonee, Department of Microbiology & Immunology top
