Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) is a global leader in long-read sequencing and multi-omics technologies that empower scientists to explore the full complexity of genomes, transcriptomes, and epigenomes with unmatched accuracy. PacBio’s innovations in Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT®) sequencing are advancing discoveries in hereditary cancer research, population genomics, and microbiome science through comprehensive and highly accurate data generation.

At the core of PacBio’s technology is HiFi sequencing, which delivers long reads with exceptional accuracy (>99.9%), enabling researchers to resolve complex genomic regions, structural variants, and haplotypes that are often missed by short-read technologies. These capabilities are particularly valuable in hereditary tumour research, cancer gene discovery, and pharmacogenomics (PGx) studies, where complete and phase-resolved genomic information is essential for understanding genetic mechanisms of disease susceptibility.

PacBio’s expanding portfolio provides researchers with integrated tools to study biology at multiple levels:

• Whole-Genome and Targeted HiFi Sequencing — comprehensive variant detection for germline and somatic research applications.
• Kinnex™ Full-Length RNA Sequencing — captures complete isoforms and alternative splicing for transcriptome-wide analysis.
• PureTarget™ Panels — customizable targeted sequencing for gene families, repeat expansions, and complex genomic regions.
• Native Methylation Detection — simultaneous DNA methylation profiling without additional library prep or bisulfite conversion.
• HiFi Metagenomics — high-resolution microbial and host–microbiome analysis relevant to gastrointestinal and immune research.

PacBio technologies are used by leading research institutes and national genomics programs worldwide, including across the Asia Pacific region, where scientists are leveraging HiFi long-read sequencing to generate comprehensive and high-confidence genomic data for translational research and scientific discovery.

Our mission is to enable researchers to see biology in its truest form—delivering the accuracy and completeness needed to advance human understanding.
