ARK-Genomics Receives Grant for Livestock Genomic Studies
January 16, 2013| |
ARK-Genomics received new funding from BBSRC to enhance their capacity to conduct massive DNA sequencing projects in livestock and related species. The unique facilities of ARK-Genomics are known to be useful in delivering world-class bioscience in the UK, especially in the fields of DNA sequencing, microarrays, SNP genotyping, and bioinformatics. The BBSRC funding complements the National Capability Grant (NCG) given by The Roslin Institute.
