We successfully concluded the three-day Genomics India Conference 2024 (GIC2024), dedicated to showcasing the latest research, technologies, breakthroughs, challenges, and strategies in genomics.
The event was honored by the presence of Dr. Rajesh Gokhale, Secretary of the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India, who graced the occasion as the Chief Guest.
Over 500 leaders in genomics from the US, UK, Europe, and the Asia Pacific region actively participated in this conference. The event featured an impressive lineup of speakers, including Nobel laureates, leading researchers, government officials, and regulatory experts. Notable highlights included the workshop on next-generation sequencing (NGS) analytics and Genome Informatics Programme, providing attendees with practical insights into crucial topics such as NGS data QC, alignment/assembly, annotation, variant calling, interpretation, and reporting.
We extend our sincere gratitude to all the attendees who contributed to making the conference a huge success! We hope you were able to take away important points and build your network.
