Then participate in one of our virtual NEBNext Lab Trainings
To facilitate your journey into NGS Library Prep with NEBNext, we offer virtual hands-on lab training sessions. During these sessions, using one of our NEBNext UltraExpress Kits, we will address all your questions and provide valuable tips as you embark on your first library prep with the selected kit.
Following the library prep process, we will assess your final libraries to complete the lab training, covering the entire journey from the initial sample to the final quality control.
Who should participate?
Our lab training is designed for anyone interested in mastering the handling of our NEBNext UltraExpress workflows. Whether you’re a student starting your scientific journey or an experienced scientist at a core facility aiming to enhance efficiency with new workflows, this training is for you. All participants should possess a solid foundational knowledge of molecular biology work.
To ensure an optimal learning experience, we limit each training session to five participants.
As a special offer, we’re providing the NEBNext Lab Training, including all necessary reagents, completely free of charge until June 30th, 2024.
Here’s a breakdown of how the Virtual NGS Lab Training works:
- Preparation: Depending on the application, participants will need to prepare certain materials in their own labs in advance. All necessary information will be provided via email well in advance of the training session to ensure a smooth and exciting learning experience.
- Training Session: During the virtual NGS lab training, an application specialist will guide participants through the workflow step-by-step via video call. It’s important to note that each participant will work independently in their own lab at their bench. The expert will be available to address questions and provide tips and assistance to ensure optimal use of the NEBNext reagents for obtaining a perfect library.
- Library Preparation: By the end of the virtual NGS lab training, participants will have successfully prepared a high-quality, sequencing-ready library that is ready for quality control.
- Feedback and Empowerment: At the conclusion of the training session, the trainer will provide detailed feedback. Participants will have all the necessary tools and knowledge to process their own samples independently and effectively utilize NEBNext workflows.
This approach allows participants to gain hands-on experience and expertise in NGS library preparation using NEBNext while receiving guidance and support from a knowledgeable expert.
