Over the coming weeks upgrades to the sequencing facility in our Cambridge lab may cause some delays. The work is necessary to help increase capacity and resilience, aligned with the ongoing rise in demand for genetic testing.
These changes require some machine downtime, which will temporarily reduce capacity and may cause delays to reporting of some tests that use next generation sequencing (NGS) methods.
As always, we aim to ensure urgent results are prioritised. Please contact the Cambridge lab with any queries: cuh.geneticslaboratories@nhs.net
We anticipate the reduction in capacity to affect services for up to two weeks. We apologise for the inconvenience as these essential works take place.
