2. NGS workshop with 3 modules - Metagenomics, Plant transcriptomes, Human exome sequencing and interpretation, Sept 12-15, 2014.

https://www.genotypic.co.in/Genotypic-Specials/34/-NGS-Workshop-2014-.aspx

This workshop is specially organized for Principal Investigators and Senior Scientists who are already working on NGS platform or those who are preparing to apply genomics in their research.

The 4 day workshop includes in-depth training on planning NGS experiment, preparing libraries and using 4 different sequencing platforms (Ion proton, Illumina Miseq, Illumina Nextseq 500 and also exposure to Solid5500XL and sanger sequencing), analysing the data and creating reports.
