Pushing frontiers of microbial exploration: From space to soil and surveillance of pathogens

Genomics is playing a pivotal role for applications in clinical and environmental microbiology research, infectious disease, and beyond. In this panel discussion, leading scientists and astronauts describe how they've implemented nanopore sequencing for cutting-edge microbial exploration. Speakers will delve into applications including utilizing nanopore devices aboard the International Space Station (ISS) for real-time microbial analysis in space, conducting environmental metagenomics in the field, and expanding genomic pathogen surveillance capacity in-country.
