Announcing the Launch of our 2nd Next Generation Sequencing Meeting

Every month technological barriers are broken in the field of sequencing. Benefits include the availability of inexpensive and accessible technology for use in a variety of biology/health care research areas as well as in environmental, safety and legal domains. Challenges such as the management, interpretation and beneficial use of the produced data, still remain. However these new breakthroughs provide a clear path forward to sequencing paradigms that will make a huge impact even in everyday life.



Next

This meeting brings together worldwide experts in the field, with a particular focus on future technologies and applications. The talks will combine provider updates on coming improvements as well as presentations from scientific experts on recent discoveries and applications.

Come and talk to the industry leaders from Illumina and Roche.

Keynote Speaker - Chris Detter, LANL.

Chris is the Group Leader of the Genomics Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The Group primarily focuses on sequencing, finishing and analysis of viral, prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes. Chris also chairs the organizing committee of Sequencing, Finishing, and Analysis in the Future.

Other speakers so far:
Toby Ost, Pacific Biosciences
