Under the name Multi-omics, the new facility will operate on a rolling basis; researchers interested in these new resources may submit proposals from January 13<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM), an organization overseen by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI), is accepting research proposals to use the equipment available in its Multi-omics facility<\/strong><\/a>, <\/strong>which from 2025 will expand to include the High-Throughput Sequencing (SEQ) <\/strong>and Metabolomics (MET)<\/strong> laboratories.<\/p>\n

Researchers interested in conducting experiments at the Multi-omics facility, <\/strong>operated by the Brazilian Biorenewables National Laboratory (LNBR), may submit their proposals from January 13 to November 1, 2025,<\/strong> with approved projects carried out between February 3 and December 12, 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

High-Throughput Sequencing (SEQ)<\/h3>\n

The SEQ laboratory specializes in large-scale sequencing of nucleic acids (DNA\/RNA).<\/p>\n

This facility allows studies that evaluate gene expression in various biological systems, and sequencing of genomes, metagenomes, metatranscriptomes and molecular markers (16S rDNA and ITS). Starting in 2025, the facility will offer technologies for long-read generation using equipment like PacBio Sequel IIe<\/strong> and minION Mk1C<\/strong> sequencers.<\/p>\n

The SEQ lab also has a highly qualified team who provide support to users from experimental design and sample preparation up to sequencing, ensuring rigorous monitoring throughout all stages of the process. Researchers interested in using the SEQ resources at the Multi-omics facility can contact the lab administration via email at ngs@lnbr.cnpem.br<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Metabolomics<\/h3>\n

The MET lab is dedicated to analyzing metabolites in complex biological samples using mass spectrometry with gas or liquid chromatography.<\/p>\n

Metabolomics offers a broad vision of metabolism in organisms via comparative analysis of metabolic profiles between individuals and\/or populations subject to different genetic, environmental or pathological conditions.<\/p>\n

Researchers interested in using the MET lab at the Multi-omics facility can email the lab administration at metabolomica@lnbr.cnpem.br<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How to submit research proposals<\/h3>\n

Researchers submit their proposals exclusively through the SAU online<\/strong><\/a> system and select which facilities are best suited to their projects. Before submitting a research proposal, we suggest contacting the coordinators of the SEQ and\/or MET lab units (ngs@lnbr.cnpem.br<\/a> and metabolomica@lnbr.cnpem.br<\/a>, respectively) to ensure a better understanding of the materials and reagents required for each experiment in question.<\/p>\n

Evaluation process<\/h3>\n

Proposals will be evaluated by an internal scientific committee which assesses technical feasibility, scientific merit and sample safety.<\/p>\n

About CNPEM<\/h2>\n

The Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM) is a state-of-the-art, multi-user and multidisciplinary scientific environment with activities on different fronts within the Brazilian National System for Science, Technology and Innovation. A social organization overseen by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI), CNPEM is driven by research that impacts the areas of health, energy, renewable materials, and sustainability. Responsible for Sirius, the country’s largest scientific research infrastructure, CNPEM is currently constructing Project Orion, a laboratory complex for advanced pathogen research. Highly specialized science and engineering teams, sophisticated infrastructure open to the scientific community, strategic lines of investigation, innovative projects involving the productive sector, and training for researchers and students are the pillars of this institution that is unique in Brazil and able to serve as a bridge between knowledge and innovation. CNPEM is responsible for operating the Brazilian Synchrotron Light (LNLS), Biosciences (LNBio), Nanotechnology (LNNano), and Biorenewables (LNBR) National Laboratories, as well as the Ilum School of Science, which offers a bachelor’s degree program in science and technology with support from the Ministry of Education (MEC).<\/p>\n
