The Next NGS Challenge Conference, a joint event of the EU COST Action SeqAhead, the EMBnet, the International Society of Computational Biology (ISCB) and the 7FP Project STATegra, is dedicated to the presentation of innovative computational approaches to the analysis of high-throughput sequencing data. The goal of this Conference is to bring together computational biologist and bioinformaticians facing new challenges on high-throughput sequencing and to feature new trends in NGS-based genome research.
The conference will be held in Valencia, Spain, on May 14-16, 2013.
The Conference will consist of keynote lectures, oral presentations and lively poster sessions, and will be preceded by an EMBnet Workshop on data analysis.
We are proud to announce the participation of the following keynote speakers:
