nCounter Panel Grant for The Francis Crick Institute
Does your research involve gene expression analysis?
If so, apply today for our nCounter® Panel Grant at The Francis Crick Institute! From now until Thursday 26th May 2022, we are inviting researchers working at the Crick Institute to submit your gene expression research abstracts (500-words only) for a chance to win 24 samples of the nCounter panel of your choice. Should you know anyone interested, feel free to invite them to apply too!
Grant closes on Thursday 26th May 2022
Save Time. Start Counting.
The nCounter® platform provides a simple and cost-effective solution for multiplex analysis of up to 800 RNA, DNA, or protein targets. Accelerate your research with just 15 minutes total hands-on time without amplification, cDNA conversion, or library prep, and generate publication-ready figures in ~24 hours.
Translational research and biomarker discovery has never been faster! NanoString has a broad portfolio of expertly curated, ready-to-use Gene Expression Panels. Each multiplex panel contains up to 770 genes and is customizable up to 30 additional unique targets. All nCounter gene expression panels are sold in increments of 12 reactions.

- Panel already available and on-shelf (no custom design permitted)
- Potential to publish the results on high impact factors (and number of articles) as determined by the judges
Grant submissions must be received by 11:59 PM British Summer Time on Thursday 26th May 2022.
Publication of Results:
All grant submissions are confidential to the individual submitter and will not be published or distributed.

Each winner agrees that NanoString shall have the right to use de-identified data from the winner’s project in application notes or marketing literature.
Eligibility and Requirements:
In order to be eligible to win the grant of the nCounter® gene expression panel, applicants must be a Francis Crick Institute Lab member. The grant winner must be age 18 or older. Members of the immediate families of NanoString employees and directors, and persons living in the same household as such persons, are ineligible for this grant.
The samples will be run at the Francis Crick Institute Advanced Sequencing Facility. The facility can help in project design, advice on sample preparation and workflow, but will not be responsible of experiment by itself and result analysis.
