Decoding the Non-coding Genome Workshop

Are you interested in the non-coding genome? Would you like to network with others in the genomics community?

Join us for the Decoding the Non-coding Genome Workshop, the next event in the OHGE ECR Networking Seminar Series.

The exciting programme includes an introduction to non-coding genomics from Jess Powell (Roslin) and research talks from Abdelaziz Beqqali (CVS), Kirsty Uttley (IGC) and Lindsey Plenderleith (Roslin). 

The OHGE ECR Networking Seminar Series will run quarterly and will provide an opportunity both to showcase exciting research taking place at the University of Edinburgh and to meet with others interested in, or using genomic technology and genome information.
