QIAGEN has launched the RNA-seq analysis portal  (https://geneglobe.qiagen.com/us/analyze/rnaseq-analysis-and-biomarker-discovery-portal) which provides read-mapping and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis analysis to researchers looking for an easier way to go from Fastq file to biological insights.  The portal is provided with the purchase of QIAseq RNA-seq kits, QIAseq miRNA library Kits, and QIAseq FastSelect rRNA & globin RNA removal reagents allowing researchers who are using both QIAseq, Illumina, Kapa, NEB and other RNA library kits access to read mapping, differential gene expression, hierarchial sample and gene set clustering, biomarker selection, sequencing and sample QC and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis.  Researchers who are interested in running their own data are encouraged to try the RAP portal for free by following this link: https://geneglobe.qiagen.com/us/analyze/rnaseq-analysis-and-biomarker-discovery-portal/trial-request.

RAP supports most model organisms used in life sciences labs including  Arabidopsis, cow, C. elegans, dog, zebra fish, fruit fly, horse, chicken, human, crab-eating macaque, rhesus macaque, mouse, rainbow trout, rabbit, rat, S. cerevisiae, S.pombe and pig.
