US-based Dovetail Genomics, a pioneering leader in the development of genomic solutions, has announced a new strategic partnership with Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF). As Australia's premier nonprofit genomic sequencing service provider, AGRF powers genomics through a national network of services and expertise.

This collaboration is aimed at bolstering genomic research and innovation across Australia and New Zealand, launching AGRF as the premier provider of Dovetail's cutting-edge products and services in the Australasian market.

Under this partnership, AGRF will offer Dovetail's comprehensive 3D genomic portfolio of proximity ligation-based products, including Dovetail Omni-C, Micro-C, and the new family of LinkPrep Technology based products, TopoLink, AssemblyLink, and VariLink Kits.

This alliance not only redefines the accessibility and application of advanced genomics across various sectors, including biomedical, agri-genomics, and clinical research, but it also significantly enhances and expands AGRF's service offerings. By integrating Dovetail's proprietary technologies, such as the rapid, single-day LinkPrep chemistry which is crucial for advanced genome assembly, genetic variation and epigenetic applications, AGRF will provide localised, high-quality genomic services, transforming the way researchers study the 3D genome.

The collaboration aligns with global industry trends as Hi-C technologies gain traction across a plethora of genomic applications and disease states.
