NanoString Launches Integrated Informatics to Facilitate Spatial Biology Research Using Next Generation Sequencing
NanoString Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSTG) has announced a new cloud-based workflow for spatial multiomic analysis that integrates with Illumina's NextSeq 1000 and 2000 systems. This innovation simplifies the process by allowing GeoMx users to plan sequencing runs and automate data processing through Illumina's DRAGEN platform. The workflow enhances the interaction, visualization, and analysis of multiomic data. This release is part of a broader partnership with Illumina, aimed at improving data analysis efficiency and enhancing user experience in life sciences.

GeoMx NextSeq workflow creates a streamlined end-to-end solution for spatial multiomic analysis, reducing user touchpoints, and the need for on-site informatics infrastructure
The new integrated workflow allows GeoMx users to plan their NextSeq 1000/2000 sequencing runs using software on the GeoMx instrument and is coupled to automated downstream data processing using the DRAGEN™ Bio-IT platform, Illumina’s industry-leading platform for secondary data analysis. Upon completion of sequence processing, the spatially-resolved digital counts of RNA or protein are ported directly to the GeoMx system, allowing researchers to interact, visualize and analyze their multiomic data.
"As a company, we strive to create end-to-end spatial solutions that are simpler, faster, and more relevant to today's life science challenges," said
“Illumina is committed to enabling compatible and streamlined workflows with our partner solutions to ensure our customers can implement the workflows that best answer their research questions,” said
The release of the new integrated workflow complements a suite of previously released spatial genomics workflows from the
