Plant and Animal Genome XXIII (PAGXXIII)
January 10-14, 2015
San Diego, California, United States
PAGXXIII will bring together over 2,800 leading researchers in plant and animal research, and over 130 exhibits, 150+ workshops, 1000+ posters, and a computer demo track specifically for highlighting relevant software and online resources. PAG is the largest Ag-Genomics meeting in the world.
If you work on digital resources that enable life science research, then please consider submitting an abstract to the PAG computer demonstration track. Computer demos are 15-20 minutes long, and are an excellent way to get resources in front of the people who will benefit the most from it.
The Computer Demo abstract submission deadline is October 31, 2014. All computer demo presenters must be registered for the conference prior to submitting. Any software which is demonstrated at the PAG Conference must also be available to the scientific community and non-commercial.
See http://www.intlpag.org/2015/abstracts/computer-demos for additional information and a link to the submission form.
Hope to see you in San Diego!

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
