One of the largest human genetics meetings worldwide, ASHG provides an outstanding forum for exchanging information on the latest scientific advances, covering a broad range of human genetics. If you’re headed to Baltimore for ASHG please visit the DNAnexus booth (#1821) to learn about our latest projects with precisionFDA, BioNano Genomics, Regeneron Genetics Center, CareDx, ViaGenetics and more. We’ve added plenty of new features and enhancements to the Platform, stop by our booth for a demo or to simply say “Hi”. We’ll also be a hosting a lunchtime talk on Thursday, discussing what the next five years might hold for the genomics and informatics industry. Come learn about the cutting-edge research being conducted at Washington University with BioNano next-generation mapping analysis, how CareDx is using NGS and cfDNA technology to deliver non-invasive clinical tests for transplant surveillance, and hear Regeneron Genetics Center present their Geisinger Health System pedigree analysis efforts. We are proud that the DNAnexus Platform provides a flexible and integrated genome informatics solution across such diverse applications.
