Whole Genome Sequencing - Broad Genomics

Superior data accuracy from the experts in genomic sequencing

With over 20 years as the leader in genomic sequencing, the Broad Institute has developed a PCR-free library construction process yielding high, even coverage of the entire genome, including exonic, intronic, GC-rich, and regulatory regions. This process has been used to sequence 300,000+ whole genomes.

All clinical sequencing is performed in our CLIA-licensed and CAP-accredited clinical research sequencing laboratory to produce high quality sequence data generated through the same exact processes that have produced hundreds of thousands of whole genomes for large resource datasets such as All of Us, TOPMed, and gnoMAD.
