Platform Centers / Hubs
PHRT has established two platforms in Switzerland for large clinical sample cohorts, that generate consistent, high quality genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic data. Each platform has the capacity to process several thousand samples per year. Both platforms offer processing of primary digital data collected from the samples to the stage of quantitative profiles. Both platforms have been extensively bench-marked and are operational.
Health 2030 Genome Center (Genomic Platform)
The Health 2030 Genome Center, based in Geneva, aims to provide forthe large-scale sequencing needsof Switzerland, thereby facilitating genomic research and the implementation of genomic-based medicine.
