Due to the University of Georgia updating to the PeopleSoft management system, all UGA account holders must now submit a valid SpeedType or ChartString when placing a GGBC order. PayAliases provide an easy way to specify the SpeedType/ChartString to pay for your requested services at GGBC.

Please remember to update any PayAliases you may already be using with the new SpeedType/ChartString. Feel free to go to your Lab page in the GGBC portal and set PayAliases up for your researchers to use. Please call (706) 542-6409 with any questions about this feature.

If you need only a small amount of data as a test run or so-called “Spike-In”, you can use the Illumina MiSeq Nano run for $288 (UGA), and $432 (commercial). See details here..
