Navigating the Sequencing Landscape in 2025

11:20 - 13:00 on Day 2, Thursday 30th January 2025 in the Genome Dome

The recent advances in novel sequencing technologies hitting the market, coupled with a lowering cost of sequencing and patents running out that affect the monopoly of market share – keeping up to date with the advances in sequencing has been challenging. In this roundtable discussion, we bring together leading experts who bring hands-on experience with different sequencing technologies to share their lessons learned from utilising the methods on the market, what they’re interested in investing in next, and what they think works for certain applications (and what doesn’t!).

How to sign-up: In mid-November all registrants/ticket holders will be sent an email announcing how to sign-up for roundtable sessions.
