I agree we had a similar response , should we make a joined effort to persuade Illumina to give a gEUVADIS commitment, otherwise the order backlog over entire Europe will lead to shipments at different times and a decoordination of the entire process….

Despite this I would strongly vote for a decentralized library prep as discussed.

Best, Philip

Betreff: [Geuvadis_rnaseq] Kit delivery

Dear Tuuli, dear all,

I want to inform you, that we just got the information from Illumina that they are not able to meet the original ship date (05/12) of both the smallRNA and the mRNA TrueSeq kits due to a kit component that is on backorder. They can't commit to a new ship date yet! This will make it hard to have samples processed this year here.

Best regards,

Marc
