Get started

Once you have Career EDGE access, you will need to complete the following trainings before working in our labs.

• Fire Safety.
• Hazardous Waste Training.
• Laboratory Safety.
• Biosafety and Bloodborne Pathogens Training.

We currently accept sample types ranging from tissue to prepared libraries for sequencing on either the Illumina MiSeq or NextSeq instruments. See specific run modules and library preparation workflow offered on iLab.

The turn-around time for any given project depends upon the exact services requested, but our average is three to four weeks.

Ship samples to our facility or drop-off on campus to:

ASU Genomics Facility
The Biodesign Institute
Arizona State University
1001 S. McAllister Ave.
Tempe, AZ 85287-6401

Phone: 480-965-6795
