Life Technologies to Showcase Ion Torrent Sequencing Technology at AACR

Join Life Technologies at Booth #1411 this April in Orlando as we explore cancer-specific research solutions for Cellular Analysis, Biomarker Discovery and Tumor Characterization. Witness our numerous on-screen, first-hand user testimonials of how our innovative workflows and product solutions are truly making a difference in the world of cancer research.

Learn about the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGMtm) sequencer which enables researchers to obtain 10Mb to 1Gb of highly accurate sequence in less than 2 hours. Read lengths are up to 200bp and will reach 400bp in 2012. The PGM workflow enables a user to sequence 8 libraries in less than one day.

You decide the "Best in Show" poster.Vote for your favorite 2011 Science Poster at AACR*. The winner will receive $5,000 in Life Technologies reagents. Stop by our booth to get your free t-shirt and to learn more!
