RNA-Seq (named as an abbreviation of RNA sequencing) is a sequencing technique which uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) to reveal the presence and quantity of RNA in a biological sample at a given moment, analyzing the continuously changing cellular transcriptome.
Specifically, RNA-Seq facilitates the ability to look at alternative gene spliced transcripts, post-transcriptional modifications, gene fusion, mutations/SNPs and changes in gene expression over time, or differences in gene expression in different groups or treatments.
RNAseq is available on the [GenoBiRD core facilities](https://sfrsante.univ-nantes.fr/plates-formes/analyses-omiques-purification-et-criblage/genobird-infrastructure-de-genomique-et-bioinformatique-2288900.kjsp).
