Single-cell and Spatial analysis

Platform Leads:

Iain Macaulay, Group Leader

Andrew Goldson, Platform Manager

Our platforms are strategically supported by BBSRC, part of UKRI, through the Transformative Genomics NBRI.

From isolation through to analysis

We can support all stages of a single- or multi-cell analysis, from cell isolation, to library preparation, sequencing and analysis.

If you are starting with tissue, sorted cells or even pre-made libraries, we have the platforms and expertise to support your project. 

Working with us

Whether you are looking for collaboration, contract research or training, our expert team provides access to cutting-edge cell sorting and single-cell genomics infrastructure and expertise.

Our platforms for single-cell isolation

Housed in Biosafety Level 2 Labs, EI has a number of platforms for single-cell isolation for sequencing.

Our single-cell sequencing workflows

After cell isolation, we have a number of workflows to generate, sequence and analyse single-cell libraries.

Why work with us

Incorporating EI's single-cell genomics in your projects will provide:

  • Access to a wide range of platforms to support different sample types - whether it is a standard 10X Genomics RNA-seq experiment, or something more bespoke, we will be able to help
  • Experiments run by a dedicated team of experienced single-cell biologists - we have over ten years experience with cell sorting for single-cell and genomics applications, and have published a number of high impact papers and key technical developments in this field
  • Additional support and expertise from EI’s Technical Genomics team - from sample receipt to sequencing, all processing is taken care of under one roof. Advanced next-generation sequencing capability and expertise are on hand
