Abstract

There has long been a demand for a capillary sequencer at the UNICAMP Faculty of Dentistry of Piracicaba. The acquisition of this equipment will allow the large-scale generation of multi-user data with highperformance, economically viable, and technically more efficient sequencing methods, thereby meeting the DNA sequencing needs of several ongoing and future projects. This will allow researchers to focus more intensely on the analysis and interpretation of data, performing experiments specifically required for their projects, based on the sequencing data generated. The perspective is that the Laboratory of Genomics at the UNICAMP Faculty of Dentistry of Piracicaba might soon achieve excellence in providing DNA sequencing services, not only to the local teaching and research community, but also to the entire scientific community in the region. To that end, 11 professors/researchers at the UNICAMP Faculty of Dentistry of Piracicaba, most affiliated with the Excellence Concept Graduate Programs, which scored 6 out of 7 on the grading system established by the Brazilian National Office for the Advancement of Higher Education, have gathered and compiled the submission of this FAPESP Multi-user Equipment Program request. It is noteworthy that among the projects that support this proposal, there are three FAPESP-funded projects (two Thematic Projects and one Young Investigators at Emerging Centers Program project).
