This event is now apart of the Genetics Week Virtual Event Series.
Our 6th Annual Event in the Genetics and Genomics Virtual Event Series is now available On Demand!
As the foundation of life, genetics provides a base for other sciences to grow from. This free on-demand event will cover the most recent and exciting advances in genetics research.
Participants of the Genetics 2018 event will learn from renowned experts like Dr. Sigrid Reinsch from NASA's GeneLab Project, Dr. Christopher Amos from Dartmouth Geisel School of Medicine, Dr. Cynthia Morton from Harvard Medical School, Dr. Katherine Blizinsky from NIH and Dr. Fritz Sedlazeck from Baylor College of Medicine.
Topics Will Included:
LabRoots invites research scientists, post-docs, principal investigators, lab directors and other genetics professionals to learn about new discoveries and discuss their own findings with like-minded colleagues and experts in the field. Genetics and Genomics conference participants benefit from interacting with field experts and networking with colleagues. Attendees can also “walk” through the virtual exhibit hall to learn about the latest in genetics and genomics tools and assays. Join LabRoots in leading progress toward understanding the genetics behind disease and treatment!
Our on-demand virtual conference allows you to participate in a global setting with no travel or cost to you. You can participate in exactly those parts which you are interested in and be back at your desk or bench in an instant. Virtual events remove time and place restrictions and ensure that everyone who wants to participate can do so. This virtual conference also offers increased reach for the global genetics community with a high degree of interaction through live-streaming video and chat sessions.
Produced on a new, more robust platform, you can watch, learn and connect during this conference on mobile devices easier than ever before. Equipped with gamification and point system, you can now move around the entire event earning points for a chance to win one of LabRoots most popular shirts
