Biobanking Development Webinar: Genomics and biobanking – a perfect match

Genomics is a rapidly evolving field constantly breaking down the boundaries of cost and time efficiency of analysis. Lately, translational and clinical researchers are also looking beyond the genome – at transcriptional, epigenetic and proteomic signatures to reveal new insights into disease aetiology. By taking advantage of new technological developments in this field, biobanks can maximise the value of their samples by identifying and validating multiomic biomarkers and thus creating new opportunities for collaborations with industry, academia, and other organisations.

This webinar will cover recent advances in genomic technology (including sequencing and data analysis), how European biobanks are using genomics and multiomics to increase value of their samples, and how the research community is using genomic/multiomic data from biobanks. for advancing biomedical research.

Join us on 9 November from 14:30 – 16:00 CET to find out more. Register online.
