Volta Labs Unveils 2025 Application Roadmap for NGS Sample Prep at AGBT

24.02.25 15:00 Uhr

BOSTON, Feb. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Volta Labs, a leading genomics applications company, today announced its four strategic focus areas for 2025 and the expansion of the Callisto App menu to include RNA library prep and single-cell prep, and multi-sequencer capabilities.

Key strategic focus areas for Volta Labs in 2025 are:

  • Launching DNA, RNA and single-cell preps for all labs
  • Enabling rapid, cost effective whole genome sequencing
  • Reducing redo rates on sequencing for targeted workflows
  • Providing a complete solution for long and short read preps on a single platform

"I'm thrilled to be able to share our Application Roadmap for NGS Sample Prep for the first time at AGBT with the genomics community," said Abdul Mohammed, founding Scientist and Head of Product at Volta Labs. "It's exciting to see, through our customers' results, how Callisto Apps are helping clinical labs with consistent and cost-efficient whole genome sequencing with Illumina and PacBio. Callisto is also reducing re-do rates on sequencing via our target enrichment approach. We will be rolling out applications spanning total RNA and mRNA library preps, single-cell library preps and expanding to support Element AVITI and Oxford Nanopore sequencers."

Existing Callisto users will be receiving all the apps as software updates. Volta Labs will also be rolling out app-specific kits. The RNA library prep kit will include reagents alongside all the plastics to run the workflows. With this expansion of the app and kit portfolio of products, Volta Labs now provides a complete sample prep solution for DNA, RNA and single-cell workflows with Illumina, PacBio, Element and Oxford Nanopore as downstream sequencers. No specialized training is required to run any apps on Callisto.
