Event overview
Join us for Nanopore Day, Montreal, to hear the latest news and developments from top researchers using nanopore technology in their work.
The full agenda will be posted soon, and will include networking breaks for opportunities to ask questions of nanopore experts, see products on display, and discuss your applications.
Please note that this is an in-person event.
There is no delegate fee for this event, but registration is required. Your place at this event will be confirmed via email from events@nanoporetech.com.
