Other software for GridION
Our device software, MinKNOW, contains everything you need to use your sequencing device and perform basecalling. Explore other categories of software for standalone basecalling and post-basecalling analysis.
Standalone basecalling software
Basecalling software converts raw electrical signals into nucleotide sequences and provides additional data analysis tools. May be used as an alternative to MinKNOW’s built-in basecaller.
Data analysis software
Data analysis software, for example EPI2ME, processes genomic data beyond basecalling. It offers a range of diverse tools for investigations and techniques such as genome assembly, variant calling, and functional analysis.
