This week we’re celebrating our 15th birthday! In 2009 we opened as a new national facility to further the UK’s capacity in genomics.
Today we're a hub of multidisciplinary life science research, innovation, training, and impact.

⚙️Exciting times at #ZBI @SIC_Saar at @Saar_Uni as we conflate the world of #Bioinformatics🧬with the creativity of @LEGO_Group🔧🧱. We use @brickopore to illustrate how @nanopore sequencing works and explain how #Bioinformatics is essential to get from data🧬to insights💡.

C’est magnifique! 🇫🇷
L'Unité d’enseignement des hôpitaux pédiatriques de Nice CHU-Lenval @FLenval a accueilli l’@ircaninstitute pour la Fête de la Science. L’occasion de parler aux élèves hospitalisés de nos recherches, de techniques de séquençage de l'ADN et de manipuler la maquette Lego @brickopore

When the lab can’t be moved it’s necessary to mobilise the @brickopore sequencer. 🧬 @EarlhamInst @MedicineDean @LeedsMedHealth #scicomm #lego

Managed to chase down an EV3 Mindstorm from @LEGO_Group through @raisingrobots for our @NHM_Molecular lab to make another LEGO @brickopore
I’m just a middle man here but those are some good names to have in one tweet!!

Thanks, Stella. We agree we’re in the “Top 5 DNA Sequencing Solutions Providers in UK.” Unfortunately, £2500 would wipe out our entire R&D budget for decades…

Great to see @brickopore technology in action in Long Island!
We had a BLAST with everyone who stopped by our LEGO® sequencer booth at the Long Island Aquarium last week! Thank you to all who contributed a link to our DNA paper chain “sequence.” LEGO® sequencer technology was developed by our collaborators at the @EarlhamInst @brickopore
