Hands-on Training School on NanoFor SPS Sequencing Platform Held at ONCOMARKERS-2025

As part of the ONCOMARKERS-2025 conference, a hands-on training school on the NanoFor SPS sequencing platform was successfully conducted. The event took place at the Institute of Chemical Biology and Fundamental Medicine, SB RAS (Novosibirsk), and was organized with the support of:

• Syntol Research and Production Company LLC
• Novel Software Systems LLC 
• ICBFM SB RAS 

Program Highlights:

• Practical session on DNA extraction from blood samples and library preparation for BRCA1/BRCA2 genes.
• Equipment training:
  — COLIBRI 48 workstation,
  — Qubix fluorometer,
  — NanoFor 05 genetic analyzer,
  —  NanoFor SPS sequencer.
• Bioinformatics analysis using Genomenal software.

Participants gained comprehensive, hands-on experience encompassing the entire workflow — from DNA extraction to data interpretation. The acquired skills are valuable for both diagnostic applications in hereditary disease research and broader scientific studies.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the organizers and participants for their active engagement and productive collaboration!
