14th International Symposium on Variants in the Genome : detection, sequencing and interpretation

14th International Symposium on Variants in the Genome : detection, sequencing and interpretation is organized by The Human Variome Project International and would be held during Jun 05 - 08, 2017 at NH Collection Santiago, A Coruna, Galicia, Spain.

The meeting aims to present the latest developments in the field, the best methodologies for scanning, sequencing, databasing, bio-informatic analysis, functional testing and classification of variants (mutations) in DNA, RNA and protein. The meeting will be presented in plenary format with notable invited speakers and speakers invited from submitted abstracts after peer review. The meeting will include Workshops on themes related to NGS pipelines and analysis, data collection and variation nomenclature.

Topics :
• Cancer genome sequencing & applications
• Single molecule sequencing
• Next Generation Variant Interpretation
