Speaker Dr. Gary Schroth
Title Enabling Genome Biology with Next-Generation DNA Sequencing Technology
Description DNA sequencing and gene expression experiments have been major tools for biological research since the early 90's. With the advent of next-generation DNA sequencing systems and the first clinical diagnostics applications of gene expression, these tools are beginning to have an impact more directly on clinical research and medicine while continuing to expand our understanding of basic biology.
