BioNano Genomics' Irys

BioNano Genomics this week said it has reached a major milestone for its Irys system: the ability to collect human data at 30X depth, sufficient for a genome map, in 24 hours on a single chip.

The company demonstrated this new capability for the IrysChip V2, the high-throughput chip for the Irys system, and will be rolling it out to BioNano's collaborators and customers over the next two months.
