The UW NHLBI Resequencing Center is one of two resequencing centers in the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) DNA Re-sequencing and Genotyping (RS&G) Program. The center provides high-throughput, large-scale DNA resequencing to identify DNA variations for program-approved investigators. The center applies the experience and expertise it has gained in other large-scale resequencing projects (e.g. SeattleSNPs, one of the NHLBI Programs for Genomic Applications [PGA]).
