Multiomics extends beyond single-cell technologies!

Join Illumina for this seminar exploring how Next Generation Sequencing is unlocking deeper biological insights across -omes and modalities.

Discover the latest applications shaping the future of multiomic research. 

Learn more about the most recent advances in NGS-based proteomics and epigenomics (5-base), developments in single cell and spatial transcriptomics, as well as innovations eliminating standard NGS library prep and unlocking long-distance genomic information

There is no charge to attend this event, however, registration is required.

Register now as space is limited.
