Toronto, ON

October 21-22, 2024

The characterization of sequence variants in a patient’s tumour is key to individualized cancer care. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is used widely to identify genetic variants in clinical oncology samples. Clinical laboratory professionals and researchers tasked with interpreting molecular results would benefit from understanding the strengths and limitations of the chemical processes and instruments that generate those data. Furthermore, an understanding of the processes by which NGS data are produced and analyzed would help with sample workflow optimization and assay troubleshooting in a clinical lab or research setting. This two-day workshop will cover the distinct sequencing chemistry used by several common NGS platforms, as well as methods for downstream data analysis and interpretation.
