RNA-Seq Summit 2018

Back  for the 6th time, the RNA-Seq Summit provides a vital forum for practitioners to stay abreast of the latest advances in RNA-Seq technologies and analytical tools, and facilitating discussions around key challenges surrounding drug development and clinical applications of RNA-Seq.Harness the next generation of RNA-Seq methods to find the signal amongst the noise when overcoming the analytical and processing challenges of RNA-Seq data, to uncover the next generation of applications.Deepen your understanding of disease biology through optimized application of RNA-Seq methods, and improve your drug discovery, biomarker and clinical applications as RNA-Seq storms into the clinic.This year’s agenda has been designed specifically for the RNA-Seq community by fore-thinkers in the industry with a greater focus on single-cell RNA-Seq, bioinformatics approaches and the clinical applications of RNA-Seq.
