The Biology Of Genomes

 
  January 11, 2013  
     
 


Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, New York
May 7-11, 2013


We are pleased to host the 26th annual meeting on genome science, The Biology of Genomes. The 2013 meeting will address DNA sequence variation and its role in molecular evolution, population genetics and complex diseases, comparative genomics, large-scale studies of gene and protein expression, and genomic approaches to ecological systems. Both technologies and applications will be emphasized. In addition there will be a special session on the ethical, legal and social implications of genome research.

 

Topics:

High Throughput Genomics & Genetics

Genetics of Complex Traits

Functional and Cancer Genomics

Computational Genomics

Evolutionary Genomics

Population Genomic Variation

Genetics and Genomics of Non-Human Species
