Our ASI Sustaining Members recognise the importance of supporting ASI and Immunology researchers in Australia and New Zealand. 

We are grateful and proud to introduce our newest ASI Sustaining Member: Nanostring.

About Nanostring

NanoString Technologies (NASDAQ: NSTG) is a publicly held provider of life science tools for translational research. The company's technology enables a wide variety of basic research and translational medicine applications.
 

Nanostring's commitment to research


The Singapore Immunology Network (SIgN) & NanoString, in collaboration with Illumina,
co-sponsor a research award for Spatial Biology.
 
The Singapore Immunology Network (SIgN) & NanoString, in collaboration with Illumina, will award the most impactful proposal in cancer immunotherapy research with the ability to discover spatial biomarkers using the latest Digital Spatial Profiling chemistry. The NanoString GeoMx® Cancer Transcriptome Atlas (CTA) for use with the GeoMx® Digital Spatial Profiler (DSP) blends high-plex and spatial analysis in a single experiment. With CTA you can profile over 1,800 genes for every region of interest on your tissue. The read out will be performed with the Illumina NextSeq™ 2000 Sequencing System located at NanoString’s premises.

The grant is open to researchers across Asia Pacific (excluding main land China/Hong Kong/Macau/Taiwan).

To be awarded:
A Cancer Transcriptome Atlas project with NGS readout on Illumina's new NextSeq™ 2000 Sequencing System:
