Unlock the Future of Genomics with CPGR

In today's fast-evolving scientific landscape, Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) stands at the forefront of groundbreaking innovation. Whether advancing medical research, improving agricultural practices, or preserving biodiversity, NGS is the key to unlocking precise, high-throughput genetic insights. At the Centre for Proteomic and Genomic Research (CPGR), we provide world-class NGS services tailored to meet the needs of researchers and institutions across South Africa.

What is Next Generation Sequencing?

Next Generation Sequencing, or NGS, refers to a suite of modern DNA and RNA sequencing technologies that allow for the simultaneous analysis of millions of genetic sequences. Unlike older, slower sequencing methods, NGS offers speed, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness, making it the preferred tool for genomic discovery.

At its core, NGS deciphers the fundamental code of life, enabling researchers to study genetic mutations, detect diseases, and understand evolutionary patterns with unparalleled precision.
