Achievements and legacy of the largest SARS-CoV-2 sequencing effort in Switzerland
Whilst facing extraordinary challenges at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Swiss SARS-CoV-2 sequencing consortium (S3C) was established at D-BSSE. With over 76’000 SARS-CoV-2 genomes sequenced between 2020 and the end of 2022 and made available in open-data archives, the effort led by Tanja Stadler informed science-based decision making – and will facilitate pathogen surveillance in the times to come.
On 17 April, a scientific symposium was held at D-BSSE to acknowledge and celebrate the completion of this massive collaborative effort. In attendance at the symposium were core team members from the research groups led by Tanja Stadler at D-BSSE, the ETH Platforms NEXUS Personalized Health Technologies and the Scientific IT Services...

Single Cell Analysis mRNA pipeline (scAmpi)
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) measures the expression levels across the genes expressed in each single cell. Thus, it is well suited to inform on the cell type composition and the function of cells in different tissues and diseases. However, it is challenging to correctly process and interpret the large amounts of data generated with scRNA-seq. external page Read more...
We have developed an analysis workflow named scAmpi that starts on raw sequencing data and performs preprocessing, quality control, and subsequent analysis steps. Find our external page pipeline on Github.
