In this video, I delve into the intricacies of a standard workflow for next-generation sequencing (NGS). We'll explore essential terminologies and concepts, including sequencing library preparation, multiplexing, sample pooling, as well as the roles of adaptors and barcodes. Furthermore, I provide an overview of different generations of sequencing technologies, spanning from the traditional Sanger sequencing to the advancements seen in Illumina, Ion Torrent, PacBio, and Oxford Nanopore sequencing technologies.
