This seminar will bring researchers and leading experts together to discuss the opportunities and challenges of working with whole genome sequencing (WGS) data at scale.
This seminar will bring researchers and leading experts together to discuss the opportunities and challenges of working with whole genome sequencing (WGS) data at scale. Spanning the allele frequency spectrum—from rare to common variants—and covering diverse variant categories, the event will explore both methodological advances and applications of WGS can be utilized to improve our understanding of biological basis of a wide range of clinical phenotypes. Through short talks and a panel discussion, the seminar aims to highlight new methods, current limitations, and future directions in analyzing WGS datasets in large-scale cohorts.
