GENOME MAPPING & SEQUENCING
Wednesday May 8 - Sunday May 12
Invited Speakers: Oral and poster presentations are selected from submitted abstracts on the basis of scientific merit.
Program:
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory is organizing the 9th Annual Genome Mapping & Sequencing Meeting, which will begin at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, May 8th, 1996 and run through noon on Sunday, May 12th. We hope to bring together the major practitioners in the field of genome analysis.
The 1996 meeting will feature sessions on physical mapping, biological insights from multi-organismal genomics, human genetics and biology, informatics, mapping methods and technologies, gene discovery and transcript mapping. We will be highlighting large-scale DNA sequencing projects in a poster symposium session. In addition, last year's successful introduction of interactive demonstrations of genomic computational tools and databases will again form part of the program. The keynote address will be given by Dr. Shirley Tilghman before the banquet on Saturday evening.
