AACR 2016

The AACR Annual Meeting 2016 will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana, on April 16-20.

The theme this year is “Delivering Cures Through Cancer Science” and we’re very much looking forward to presenting our solutions for data analysis and interpretation.

During the conference you can find us at booth #741 and on April 19, we’ll host a presentation on transcriptome analysis of pancreatic cancer exomes.

Presentation

Speaker: Jean-Noel Billaud, Ph.D., Principal Scientist, QIAGEN
Date and time: Tuesday, April 19 at 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM
Location: Spotlight Theater B – Hall J (enter through Lobby I)
