Addgene Newsletter, January 2025

Hi Reader,

It’s been a busy few months here at Addgene, and we’ve got a lot of things to share, but don’t worry! The Addgene newsletter means you won’t miss a thing. For instance, we recently launched our expanded viral vector service, AAV Packaged on Request. (We may have mentioned Packaged on Request a time or two before... but we just can't seem to stop talking about it!)

In the rest of this newsletter, you’ll find:

• New Antibodies Educational Resources
• We're Improving Search
• Hot Plasmids and New Viral Vectors
• Winter Savings Coupon!
• Follow Addgene

New Antibodies Educational Resources
