QIAGEN N.V. announced it will showcase its oncology workflow applications at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2026 in San Diego, demonstrating how its portfolio connects sample preparation with multi-omics profiling and genomic data interpretation to support cancer research and molecular diagnostics.

Why it matters

Cancer research and molecular diagnostics are increasingly constrained by fragmented workflows, variability in sample processing and the growing complexity of multi-omics data. QIAGEN aims to help standardize critical steps from sample preparation through data interpretation, enabling more consistent results, improved reproducibility and more confident insights from complex biological data.

The details

At the AACR Annual Meeting 2026, QIAGEN will showcase applications across key stages of the oncology workflow, from sample preparation to genomic profiling and data interpretation. This includes new instruments and kits for single-cell analysis, the upcoming IVD QIAsymphony Connect automation platform, new QIAseq research panels for next-generation sequencing, and the new QIAGEN Discovery Platform for AI-powered drug discovery support.

  • The AACR Annual Meeting 2026 will take place from April 17–22 in San Diego.
  • QIAsymphony Connect is an upcoming IVD system that builds on over 3,300 placements of the established QIAsymphony platform.
  • QIAsprint Connect for research use only was launched at the SLAS 2026 meeting in February and is now progressing through commercialization.
  • The Evercode Whole Transcriptome v4 kit and the Evercode Whole Transcriptome FFPE kit from Parse Biosciences are now shipping.
