5 April 2011: Provisioning Bioinformatics for the Next Decade - are we prepared? |
|
|
The 1st Eagle Genomics Symposium. Venue: Babraham Research Campus, Cambridge CB22 3AT Eagle Genomics Ltd. would like to invite you to our 1st Symposium, on the subject of "Provisioning Bioinformatics for the Next Decade – are we prepared?". Bringing together thought leaders from across a wide range of biotechnology sectors, we hope to explore such questions as: Just how much are we expecting bioinformatics data to grow in the next few years? What data will it be? When will it arrive? Where will it be generated? Do we really need it all? Who's going to look after it? How are we going to search it? Who will build the tools to analyse it? Where will they be built? How do we keep it all secure? Will we have to share? |

11 April 2011: SGPPH - 5th AGM |
|
|
Venue: Cardiff. SGPPH is the Society for Genomics Policy and Population Health. This one-day meeting, based on the theme of "Clinical and Public Health implications of cutting edge genomic advances", will be presented by scientists and social researchers. The aim of the day is to update participants with an excellent overview regarding present and future developments in these cutting edge technologies, generating lively debate and exploring what they can bring to public health and developing clinical practice. The conference will explore new developments in genomic technologies. This includes presentations on whole genome sequencing, epigenetics and public health, genomics and the evolution of pathogens before exploring what the implications of these developments mean for medicine and healthcare. Topics examined will include how the genome is used against pathogens to fight the old diseases that have often plagued so many across the globe and how the rapidly advancing science of epigenetics provides new possibilities for those at risk from long term disease including cancer and cardiovascular disease. Through dissection of the technologies the scientists will describe what is achievable and realistic, with social scientists and clinicians talking about the ethical, philosophical and legal implications. As part of the audience you will be drawn into discussions and lively debates with these speakers who are leading these new fields. |
