Individuals suspected of having a rare disease often face a long search for an answer. With up to 80% of rare diseases being genetic or having a genetic subtype, it is imperative to interrogate the genome to find answers and shorten the diagnostic odyssey. This webinar provides an overview of the integrated workflow provided by Illumina for rare and undiagnosed diseases research. Starting from library prep to sequencing and informatics, Illumina empowers researchers to find the answers they seek in rare and undiagnosed disease research.

Using GenomeStudio software to generate custom cluster files is necessary to analyse custom microarray content. In this webinar, we discuss the basics of cluster files including when to use a custom cluster file, why custom cluster files are needed, as well as the detailed steps required to create your own custom cluster file. Learn how to cluster the SNPs on your custom array by properly filtering and manually editing the file.
