Program:
As the Human Genome Project gears up into the sequencing phase, the
expectations for translating such data into valuable information increase.
While automated gel-based sequencing remains the workhorse of this effort,
newer approaches have moved much closer to becoming practical. Much
greater emphasis is also being placed on software for analyzing sequences
and the creation of gene expression libraries and databases. Such
databases, in combination with analysis of gene function, will play a key role
in the identification of novel targets for diagnostic and therapeutic
applications. The third day of this meeting will again feature case studies of
genomic data-based drug development efforts. This meeting has become
established as a key forum for academic and commercial researchers to
discuss and find out about the latest technology and applied developments in
the genomics field.
