Nanopore Day, Bay Area 2023
September 19 2023, 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM PDT
San Francisco, United States

Event overview

Join us for Nanopore Day, Bay Area, to hear the latest tech updates and developments from top researchers using nanopore technology. Presentations cover whole-genome sequencing, single-cell RNA sequencing, methylation and structural variant detection, transcriptomics, plasmid and AAV sequencing. Discussions will include applications used for cancer research, rare disease research, synthetic bio, biomarker discovery, and pathogen surveillance.

The agenda includes networking breaks, Q&A, product displays, and opportunities to engage with nanopore experts and colleagues.

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.
