VarSeq 3.0.0 is officially here, and it’s one of our most significant releases yet! The headline feature of this update is full integration with VSWarehouse 3, including a new login system that supports both single-user mode and server-managed authentication. Users can now choose to work locally or seamlessly store projects and data on a shared VSWarehouse location. There were several… Read more »
Recently, Golden Helix attended the ASHG 2025 conference, where we had the opportunity to showcase our partnership with Genomenon. This collaboration took center stage at both our booth and Genomenon’s CoLab session, Automating Genomic Workflows: Cutting Interpretation Time, Accelerating Turnaround, and Increasing Diagnostic Yield. Our discussions centered on a problem that every clinical lab faces as variant volumes continue to… Read more »
As precision medicine advances, clinicians and diagnostic labs face an ever-increasing volume of genetic data and analytical complexity. Meeting this demand requires tools that streamline data management and automate bioinformatic workflows to deliver timely, accurate diagnoses. By bringing data management, diagnostic workflow automation, and reporting into a single platform, VSWarehouse 3 provides the foundation that laboratories need to scale precision… Read more »
Recently, Golden Helix Field Application Scientists Rana Smalling and Andrew Legan led a webcast on Secondary NGS Workflow Automation in VSWarehouse. The presentation walked through the process of turning FASTQ data into completed VarSeq projects and clinical reports with just a click of a button. During the Q&A, a few key topics were raised, and we’ll discuss those further in… Read more »
Over the past several months, we’ve highlighted the powerful new capabilities introduced with VarSeq Warehouse 3.0. Today, I’d like to focus on a familiar feature that’s been thoughtfully enhanced, assessment catalog record management. This update significantly improves data quality, role-based collaboration, and regulatory compliance. Variant assessment catalogs have always been a core component of the VarSeq platform, allowing users to… Read more »
In our recent webcast, we explored how VSWarehouse 3 streamlines and automates pharmacogenomics workflows, transforming raw NGS data into actionable clinical reports. This blog post recaps the webcast, breaking down each component of the standard pharmacogenomics workflows to demonstrate how laboratories can achieve end-to-end automation in pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing. Breaking Down the Pharmacogenomics Workflow VSWarehouse 3 provides users with an… Read more »
Managing genomic workflows at scale has always required a bit of IT expertise. The reality is, Next Generation Sequencing data is quite large and requires substantial compute resources to process. Clinical labs must carefully plan how to scale their IT resources to match their genomic testing workloads. Some labs prefer to operate fully “cloud native,” while others value the control… Read more »
