Mutation Detection 2011: 11th International Symposium on Mutations in the Genome

 
  November 24, 2010  
     
 


*, Santorini, Greece
6th - 10th June 2011


We visit Santorini once again due to popular demand!


This meeting aims to bring together all those interested in Mutation Detection methods and their application in Biology, Medicine and Agriculture. It is a forum where developers of methodology can exchange ideas, and those responsible for diagnostics can compare results with specific methods. Those in agriculture, microbiology and non-medical fields are encouraged to attend. It is also a source of new commercilization opportunites and partnerships.

The Mutation Detection Symposium this year will be held in the Petros M. Nomikos Conference Centre which is located in the capital of the island of Santorini which is generally considered to be one of the most beautiful places in the world. These symposia have a tradition of a wonderful cultural program that compliments the scientific program allowing all participants to freely interact and exchange ideas in magnificent surroundings with plenty of time for communication between the invited inventors and major users and committed audience who have experience in mutation detection.

There is a strictly limited number of 200 registrants on a 1st come 1st served basis to allow maximum interaction between delegates. At the last meeting in Santorini in 2005, registration reached full capacity 3 MONTHS BEFORE THE MEETING and due to limited space size, we were unable to allow further registrations. We expect this meeting also to be a sell-out. We therefore advise you to register as soon as possible.


Invited Speakers

Up to 25 key speakers in the field of Mutation Detection have been/will be invited. Speakers will be chosen based on new cutting edge technologies.
