EpiWorkshops – Spring sessions

Join us this spring for our new Epigenomics workshops season! Our à la carte program (March 11-18-25 & April 1-8-15) is completely modular. You can join the sessions that are the most relevant for your research. Plus, get an introduction to new and upcoming technologies in epigenomics analyses.

 

Each workshop will be offered several times throughout the day, as outlined in the schedule.

  

All of our live sessions are highly interactive, with a mix of lecture, demos, use cases and fun activities to help you master the techniques behind chromatin and DNA methylation studies. Novice or expert, you'll learn something new with our passionate epigenomics experts covering workflows in depth – sample preparation, wetlab protocols, library preparation, analysis and bioinformatics.
