Other important applications are the whole-length transcript- a nd direct RNA sequencing that allows unprecedented precision in studies of alternative splicing (PacBio)\, RNA base modifications (Oxford Nanopore) and single-cell RNA sequencing (10x Genomics).\nDay 1: Scientific symposiu m\, covering an introduction to technologies and latest developments\, app lications in human genomics and in de novo studies.\nDay 2: Application wo rkshops focusing on data analysis within two major applications: de novo a ssembly and structural variants.\nDownload the preliminary program here\nO rganizers:\nOlga Vinnere Pettersson\, UGC\; NGI-Uppsala\,  project coordi nator as well as the contact person.\nAdam Ameur\, UGC\; NGI-Uppsala\nUlri ka Liljedahl\, SNP&\;SEQ Technology platform\, NGI-Uppsala\nRegistratio n:\nTo register for the event\, please visit the homepage goo.gl/N97Ctc.\ nAlternatively\, please fill out the registration form that can be found a t https://goo.gl/forms/MB2SljINsb04c8Uu1 LOCATION:SciLifeLab Uppsala\, Entrance C11\, BMC\, Husargatan 3\, Uppsala\, 752 37\, Sweden X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Entrance C11\, BMC\, Husarg atan 3\, Uppsala\, 752 37\, Sweden;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=SciLifeLab U ppsala:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/Stockholm X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/Stockholm BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20190331T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0100 TZOFFSETTO:+0200 TZNAME:CEST END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
