[SocBiN] Pangenomes — Evolution and Computation, Nov 17, 2021, at the Wallenberg Conf. Center, Göteborg

[Alexander Schliep]

Dear colleagues,

we cordially invite you to participate in a workshop on "Pangenomes — Evolution and Computation".

Pangenomes are revolutionizing biology, and new computational and technical tools are providing new insights into evolution and biodiversity. A pangenome is a catalog of all the genetic variation found within a population providing a more comprehensive and inclusive platform to make new discoveries without the biases inherent in using any one genome as a reference. We will bring together world experts in pangenomics for a one-day meeting on Wednesday, November 17, 2021, in Gothenburg, Sweden and remotely  

More information about the one-day workshop at the Wallenberg Conference Centre, including a registration form, can be found at https://pgec2021.schlieplab.org/. This event is organized by Scott V. Edwards (Harvard and Dept. of Biological and Environmental Sciences, University of Gothenburg) and Alexander Schliep (Data Science & AI, CSE, University of Gothenburg).

We are grateful for support from the BioEnv Dept. at GU, NBIS and the Museum for Comparative Zoology (Harvard).

For the organizers,
Alexander Schliep
