Highlights from London

Not too long ago, we returned from Oxford Global’s 8th Annual NGS Congress. While the majestic host city of London was a compelling draw, it was difficult to tear ourselves away from the all action inside the Novotel West hotel.

We hope you had a chance to stop by our booth during the event, where we offered three separate presentations and met countless new customers and colleagues. Our speakers covered topics ranging from overcoming challenges in single-cell isolation, to taking an integrative approach to biomarker discovery, and we had a special guest speaker: Dr. Dominic Graham Rothwell from the University of Manchester. Dr. Rothwell discussed how NGS can help realize the growing clinical potential of using liquid biopsies for cancer.

While liquid biopsy was a significant focus for us, other topics covered at the event included CRSPR gene editing, the 100,000 genomes project, developments in NGS technologies and platforms, and NGS data management, to name but a few. We were thrilled to be part of the action at this year’s event, and will definitely be back again next year. In the meantime, please contact us if you have questions.
