GenoLogics and CLC bio to Provide End-to-End Genomics Informatics and Analysis for Next Generation Sequencing

VICTORIA, BC, Canada & AARHUS, Denmark--(Business Wire)--
GenoLogics and CLC bio today announced they will provide an end-to-end
informatics and analysis solution, optimized for Next Generation Sequencing
research that addresses both lab and data management and data analysis all
within one integrated system.

This end-to-end solution will significantly impact researchers` ability to
aggregate raw data across Next Generation Sequencing experiments to get to
biological meaningful results faster. From initial sample submission to final
analysis, GenoLogics` lab and data management system for genomics, Geneus, and
CLC bio`s CLC Genomics Server, CLC Genomics Workbench and CLC NGS Cell integrate
seamlessly to help researchers get the most out of their Next Generation
Sequencing instruments.

"With this collaboration, our Enterprise Platform expands with an end-to-end
workflow that couples world-class LIMS functionalities like tracking of samples
and data as well as reporting, with our comprehensive Next Generation Sequencing
analysis capabilities, to the obvious benefit of our customers. This way
researchers can keep up with the vast volumes of sequencing data being churned
out by high-throughput sequencing machines, and quickly turn the massive amounts
of raw data into meaningful results," commented Thomas Knudsen, CEO at CLC bio.

"We continually strive to provide our customers with solutions that marry
best-in-class analytics tools and informatics to accelerate the path to
meaningful results and discovery," said Sal Sanci, Vice President Products for
GenoLogics. "This collaboration combines two proven systems, into one unified
environment for data management and comprehensive analysis. We know our
customers need a unified end-to-end solution and have asked for an integration
between Geneus and CLC bio`s NGS platform - and now it`s available!"

Combined, these two systems offer a comprehensive solution to researchers using
next generation sequencing instruments. Researchers can keep pace with the
growing volume of sequence data, and quickly turn massive amounts of raw data
into meaningful results.

This powerful informatics and analysis solution offers researchers extensive
sample tracking, project, and workflow management capabilities, as well as
streamlined data pipelining, and comprehensive results analysis. Furthermore it
provides users with a well organized and intuitive graphical interface for
carrying out an extensive range of high-performance computing accelerated
analyses within genomics, transcriptomics, and epigenomics.
