That peak that is probably stutter, but could be a minor contributor allele in a mixture profile. But a stutter peak doesn’t align with the number of contributors you are estimating from other loci. Should you make the call yourself or confer with other analysts?

These decisions repeat across so many mixtures in your caseload, and it consumes time you could use to get more cases completed.

The Paradyme™ 27GY STR System is now available. It uses a different approach: instead of filtering stutter out after it's created, a Reduced-Stutter Polymerase (RSP) prevents most of it from happening in the first place. In a blinded Promega study, analysts interpreted mixtures 43% faster and with higher confidence among all testers.

Celebrate Wisconsin science this Friday! 🧬

The Wisconsin Science Festival is back—a 10-day celebration of science, technology, engineering, art, and math happening all across Wisconsin. And Promega is hosting one of the year’s must-see events.

Bring your family and friends for a behind-the-scenes look at how science made right here in Wisconsin reaches researchers around the world. Explore how our discovery work in the labs becomes products manufactured here in Fitchburg that support scientists globally.

• Guided tours of our research and manufacturing facilities
• Hands-on bioluminescence experiments in the BioPharmaceutical Technology Center Institute (BTCI) labs
• Meet the people and see the science that powers global research

Whether you’re curious about biotech, looking for a unique family outing, or just want to celebrate Wisconsin innovation—this is for you. All ages welcome, no registration needed. Browse the full Wisconsin Science Festival lineup and find more events happening throughout the state: https://ow.ly/Pt7N50ZWn2I

Your casework lab is pushing to reduce case turnaround time and backlogs. One place you're losing time: DNA mixtures, where stutter artifacts make every profile more complicated and slower to interpret.

For 30 years, labs have interpreted around this problem during downstream analysis. The Paradyme™ 27GY STR System takes a different approach: it limits stutter in the first place, during amplification.

What that means for your organization:
• 100+ analyst hours saved yearly in initial analysis for every 100 mixtures/month (estimated), plus time savings in secondary reviews.
• Fewer complex mixtures ending with an inconclusive determination.
• Faster turnaround on mixture cases.
• More throughput without hiring more staff.

Promega validation services will even help remove the barrier of validating this new technology for your lab, with a tailored validation completed in about six weeks requiring minimal staff time away from casework.

The Paradyme™ 27GY STR System is available now. Learn how it could change your lab's timeline: https://ow.ly/KrIL50ZWnxH?

"At 24 hours, you see the end of the journey but do not understand the path to that point."

Danette Daniels at Foghorn Therapeutics on why standard endpoint assays aren't enough for protein degrader programs -- and how Promega Tailored R&D Solutions (TRS) helped her team characterize the full picture. Read the full story in Nature.

As drug discovery moves towards increasingly complex targets and modalities, researchers are grappling with new challenges in assay development, validation and translation. Addressing these hurdles is an essential part of bringing new therapies to patients.

The first new cat species in over 100 years was recently described in Current Biology and highlighted in National Geographic. This feline is rewriting what we know about an entire family of wild cats. Not only is Leopardus tilcayo cute, the new species highlights the importance of pairing genomics with phenotyping, and how these two methods work together to inform conservation.
