We provide bespoke metagenomic advice and services
Do you want to screen your enviornmental sample, or tissue sample, for the presence of microbes? If you are able to provide us with fresh ethanol-fixed material, or a DNA or RNA sample, we may be able to sequence the sample and provide a breakdown of the different taxa that are detected.
We can help with diagnostic development or metagenomic processing and analysis of the resulting data. This could result in the design of a specific diagnostic tool that you can apply in your laboratory, or it could provide you with detailed diversity information.
Most commonly, this service will result in a detailed breakdown of the microbial diversity associated with your specimen. Raw data will be provided as well as the assembled data and a short report on the available findings.
Please get in touch to discuss any associated costs
Does your team need genetic data to identify a new species?
We can provide genomic screening of ethanol-fixed specimens to provide genomic detail for your sample, in addition to metagenomic data from tissue or environmental samples.
As a part of this service, the genomic analysis can be tailored to your specific interests, including exploration of pathogens in situ, or mining of specific genes from the species of interest.
Most commonly, this service will result in the complete or partial mitochondrial genome of your specimen in addition to common nuclear genetic markers, such as the SSU and LSU genes. Raw data will be provided as well as the assembled data and a short report on the available findings.
Please get in touch to discuss any associated costs
Are you interested in an educational session on crustacean histology?
If you work for a company such as a university, or are holding a conference in this area of research, and you would like a specialist lecture on crustacean histology, we may be able to help. Dr Jamie Bojko holds lecture sessions at the University of Florida and Teesside University regularly as a part of academic courses run through these institutions. If you would like to schedule a session for your class, please get in touch via bojkolaboratory@gmail.com to discuss costs and attendance
Conduct your PhD with the Bojko Laboratory
The Bojko Laboratory is accepting PhD students. Fully or partially funded positions will be advertised when funding becomes available, but if you would like to discuss an opportunity to study in the Bojko Laboratory as a self-funded student, please get in touch at: bojkolaboratory@gmail.com
