Complete Genomics Announces Partnership with BioTuring and the Go Optical STOmics Microscope

SAN JOSE, Calif., March 25, 2025 – Complete Genomics, a leading innovator in genomic sequencing, announced at the NextGen Omics & Spatial Biology Conference that it has partnered with BioTuring, developer of advanced bioinformatics algorithms and software that enables rapid OMICS analysis, to offer researchers access to SpatialX, a powerful deep-learning tool for unified multi-technology spatial data analysis compatible with STOmics chemistries designed to analyze spatial datasets for faster results.  

“Because bioinformatics can be a pain point for adoption of spatial technologies for some customers, we’re excited to partner with BioTuring to speed up spatial data analysis to help catalyze biological discovery,” said Rob Tarbox, VP of Product and Marketing at Complete Genomics.

Researchers using STOmics spatial transcriptomics chemistries will benefit from pre-optimized analysis pipelines within SpatialX, reducing the need for custom bioinformatics solutions and requiring no-coding experience. BioTuring’s visualization and data analytics capabilities will make it easier to extract biologically meaningful insights from large spatial datasets.

“We continuously evolve our software, leveraging innovative computational methods and AI-based models to simplify complex data analysis. By eliminating typical bioinformatics bottlenecks, we enable researchers to rapidly transform datasets into actionable insights that drive discovery across various disease areas,” said Rujuta Narurkar, COO at BioTuring.

Complete Genomics also announced it now offers the STOmics Go Optical Microscope, specifically designed to meet the imaging needs of any spatial transcriptomics workflows. Using Go Optical, researchers can optimize permeabilization conditions, map cell nuclei, and analyze protein and tissue morphology through fluorescence photography for subsequent bioinformatics analysis.

“Compatible with all STOmics Stereo-seq applications, we’ve added Go Optical to our current portfolio to provide a more streamlined workflow for our customers,” said Yuan Jiang, VP of Research, STOmics Americas Ltd.  “Go Optical offers the benefit of fast, high-resolution imaging with minimal stitching errors for more accurate tissue and cell segmentation,” she said. With a scanning area of 70 mm x 100 mm, Go Optical supports all STOmics chip sizes, including large format chips.
