Description

Recent developments in molecular biology, microfluidics, and computational biology have transformed the field of single cell genomics, and have widespread biological applications. However, the breathtaking pace of technology development has given rise to a multitude of molecular protocols, commercial systems, and computational challenges.

The Satija Lab is excited to host the seventh annual Single Cell Genomics Day on Friday, April 7, 2023. This workshop will begin with an overview of exciting developments in the field over the past year, followed by in-depth presentations on exciting methods and techniques. Our goal is to empower you to utilize single cell genomics in your work. The workshop is free and open to beginners and experts alike.

Come to:

  • Learn about cutting-edge molecular technologies for multimodal single-cell analysis, cellular recording, lineage tracing, and spatial profiling.
  • Discover powerful new computational approaches for transcriptional and post-transcriptional network reconstruction, integrating sequencing and imaging datasets, and scalable processing of millions of cells.
  • Share ideas, troubleshoot experiments, and ask questions.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Single Cell Genomics Day will take place virtually in 2023. We are able to make all talks freely available via livestream thanks to support from the National Human Genome Research Institute to the Center for Integrated Cellular Analysis.
