Workshop: Next Generation Sequencing: What's Next? - 1 June 2012 - Uppsala, Sweden
1 June 2012, Uppsala, Sweden In conjunction with the COST Action Training School SeqAhead is organizing a one-day workshop on "Next Generation Sequencing: What´s Next?".
The workshop will focus on future developments in NGS and point out the success the technology has in modern biology research.
The programme include 2 keynote lectures, selected oral presentations and presentations from industry and technology specialists such as SciLife, BGI, Pacific Biosciences, Ion Torrent and Applied Biosystems/SOLiD.
An extensive poster session will stimulate interaction and discussions.
The submitters of the five best abstracts will be reimbursed for travel and accommodation (according to COST rules) and the two best abstracts will be selected for oral presentation. Abstract submission (http://www.nextgenerationsequencing.eu/abstract_submission)
Topics of Interest:
Strategies for mapping NGS reads
Genome de novo sequencing
Re-sequencing, and assembly
SNP discovery
Variant calling
RNA-Seq analysis
Genome annotation
Non-coding and small RNA discovery and characterization
Metagenomics
