About Us

Roche NimbleGen, Inc.
Roche NimbleGen is an innovator in the life sciences market, working with an integrated team among Roche Applied Science researchers worldwide. Our site in Madison, WI is focused on research activities and manufacturing target enrichment probe pools for DNA sequencing. Capitalizing on the efficiencies inherent with parallel enrichment, researchers can now design economical, high throughput, and time-saving next-generation sequencing experiments. Next-generation sequencing combined with Sequence Capture probe pools offers researchers a clearer understanding of genomic structure and function in order to understand the impact of genes on biological processes. We are part of the innovations in sequencing solutions for life science research, now and in the future.
