Feb 26, 2015

Genalice said this week that Genalice Map, its next-generation sequencing data processing software, is now available via Amazon Web Services.

The company is seeking researchers who would be willing to test-drive the new implementation. Interested parties can sign up for accounts and sign validation agreements on the company's website. Genalice is offering a full month of unlimited testing to the first 25 centers that sign up as in incentive. The company also offers an on-premise implementation of the Map software in its Genalice Vault appliance.
