NEW YORK – Synthetic oligonucleotide manufacturer ATDBio and researchers from the University of Oxford have won a £369,632 ($480,084) grant from Innovate UK to develop tagged microbeads for use in single-cell RNA sequencing library preparation.
ATDBio will develop improved oligonucleotide tagged beads, "which will help enhance the quality of the sequencing results and enable new types of experiments," the UK firm said in a statement on Tuesday.
