Scaling HiFi genomes and multiomic discovery with SPRQ-Nx

February 12, 2026 - February 13, 2026

Thursday, February 12, 9:00 AM PST | 12:00 PM EST | 5:00 PM GMT
Friday, February 13, 11:00 AM SGT | 2:00 PM AEDT

SPRQ-Nx chemistry on the Revio system enables human research, population-scale genomics, and clinical research projects at a more affordable price point without compromising performance.

In this webinar, we will introduce SPRQ-Nx chemistry and its capabilities, including expanded methylation calling, and discuss how it will support the generation of more complete, multiomic native long-read genomes at a substantially lower cost. Attendees will also hear from multiple early-access customer sites with real-world data, highlighting applications in population genomics, clinical sequencing, and human disease research.
