Complete toolkit for genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, and metagenomics in one program
Comprehensive NGS data analysis
User-friendly bioinformatics software solutions allow for comprehensive analysis of your NGS data, including de novo assembly of whole genomes and transcriptomes, resequencing analysis (WGS, WES and targeted panel support), variant calling, RNA-seq, ChIP-seq and DNA methylation (bisulfite sequencing analysis).
Analyze your RNA-seq and small RNA (miRNA, lncRNA) data with easy-to-use transcriptomics workflows for differential expression analysis at gene and transcript levels.
Supported NGS platforms include Illumina, IonTorrent, Oxford Nanopore and PacBio.
Biomedical genomics analysis
Biomedical genomics analysis and panel data analysis functionality is delivered through the QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench and the free plugin, Biomedical Genomics Analysis. This plugin provides tools and workflows for NGS panel data analysis, including WES, WGS and RNA-seq, as well as SARS-CoV-2 panel analysis workflows for QIAseq and Ion AmpliSeq.
Template workflows
Biomedical workflows with complete reference sets for human, mouse and rat genomics include hereditary disease workflows (trio analysis, family-of-four) and oncology somatic mutation detection workflows, and can be used on FFPE or liquid biopsy samples (single sample or tumor-normal matched samples). These workflows enable sensitive detection of SNPs, MNVs, InDels, tandem repeats, structural variants, fusion genes, CNVs and loss of heterozygosity (LoH). Annotation with conservation scores and filtering steps on dbSNP and ClinVar are included.
Extend the toolbox with plugins
Multiple plugins are available for the QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench, tailored to specific applications such as multiple sequence alignment, whole genome alignment, transcript discovery, biomedical genomics analysis, long read analysis and haplotype calling. These feature-rich extensions are seamlessly integrated into the QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench, and provide advanced tools and workflows to meet your specific needs for analysis.
Uncover the signals that lead to breakthrough discoveries in your biomedical research
Support for the analysis of NGS data from human and mouse PCR-based GeneRead panels or Unique Molecular Index (UMI)-based miRNA, RNA, DNA and methylation QIAseq panels is also provided by the Biomedical Genomics Analysis plugin. The tools and workflows work as well with third-party vendor NGS panels (PCR, UMI or hybrid capture target enrichment panels such as Illumina TSO500, Ion Torrent, ArcherDx, Agilent, NimbleGen or Twist panels).

Don’t take our word for it: Hear what our customers have to say
QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench has contributed to tens of thousands scientific articles, and is by far one of the most highly-cited scientific software for molecular biologists and biomedical professionals.
Enhancing your productivity is our business.
QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench allows scaling to any size. Enterprise solutions permit entire institutions to make use of the same software.
Customized workflows to accelerate your data analysis
QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench is developed to support a wide range of NGS bioinformatics applications. Workflows can combine quality control steps, adapter trimming, read mapping, variant detection, and multiple filtering and annotation steps into a pipeline you can share with colleagues and execute with just one click.
New workflow elements together with enhanced metadata capabilities allow within-workflow batching, useful for e.g., iterating the quantification of many RNA-seq samples followed by statistical comparison of groups.
