About
We are advancing sequencing technology through bold and socially responsible innovation.
The UCSC Sequencing Technology Center is focused on education and collaboration, offering workshops and grants to support the exchange of cutting-edge sequencing techniques — expanding our understanding of human health and the natural world.
Telomere-to-telomere human genomes
Other species genomes
Rare disease
International community-driven research
Technology for exploring functional elements in telomere-to-telomere sequences
Genomics for everyone
UCSC researchers release the first human ‘pangenome,’ better representing our genetic diversity and setting the stage for new discoveries.
The birthplace of nanopore sequencing
Nanopore sequencing, a revolutionary method for reading DNA and RNA, was co-invented at UCSC by David Deamer, professor emeritus of biomolecular engineering. This method has enabled some of the most significant genomics breakthroughs of the last two decades.
