Next-Generation Sequencing Data Analysis
September 21 - 23, 2009
- Providence RI UNITED STATES
Cambridge Healthtech Institute
Now-generation sequencing platforms are capable of generating gigabytes of data in a sequence run - leading to terabytes of data in a single experiment. Thus data storage, transfer, and analysis will unquestionably be the rate limiting steps in turning this new sequencing data into knowledge. Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s Next-Generation Sequencing Data Analysis convenes engineers who are developing the sequencing platforms, biological researchers who are designing and running the experiments, biostatisticians who are analyzing and interpreting the data, and software developers who are managing and storing the data. Each specialty provides unique perspectives and must be integrated into a cohesive, comprehensive team to decipher the sequencing data deluge.
