Salute! Nexus Negronis On Us at AGBT! - Inside DNAnexus

Written by Caroline Clode | Feb 6, 2017 9:39:12 AM

The DNAnexus team is gearing up for the biggest genomics party of the year: AGBT. This annual meeting brings together leaders in the field of genomics to network and share the latest advances in cutting edge sequencing technologies, analytical approaches for genomic studies, and groundbreaking new discoveries.

If you’re headed to Hollywood (Florida), we invite you to visit DNAnexus, any time, in our Hospitality Suite (#218) where you can rub elbows with your colleagues and ask our team about the far-reaching applications and powerful network effect of our secure and collaborative platform. And don’t worry about whetting your whistle, we have you covered.  We’ll be serving our signature Negroni cocktails.
