Friday 5th June 2015 Aula Magna Pediatria S. Orsola-Malpighi Hospital 8.30 - 13.00 Bringing Next Generation Sequencing to Your Clinical Lab Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies are increasingly making their way into clinics in a range of screening applications. While traditional diagnostic techniques such as Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) will remain relevant and important, many emerging applications require the depth of information NGS can offer. Whether you are new to NGS, or familiar with it, we warmly invite you to attend this seminar on Friday 5th June to learn more about Massively Parallel Sequencing applications in clinical settings. We will briefly touch on topics such as sample preparation, sequencing and data analysis, as well as show some examples of the added values Next Generation Sequencing will bring to the clinical laboratory. All presentations will be delivered in English and a coffee break will be provided. The event will take place in Hospital San Orsola Malpighi - Aula Magna Pediatria ‐ Pad. 10 Pediatria "G. Gozzadini", Via Massarenti 9, 40138 Bologna We look forward to seeing you in at the seminar.
