We'll be exhibiting at this year's BioData World Congress, as well as sponsoring the Pre-Conference Workshop on the 1st November.
Pre-Conference Workshop
If you're attending the BioData World Congress, make sure you don't miss our Pre-Conference Workshop on the 1st November, co-sponsored by MedImmune and the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.
It's your chance to sit down with academic and industry peers to address the data challenges we all care about- we're looking forward to lively discussions, shared experiences and ideas for solutions!
We're all about data and how it can help scientists make the next medical breakthrough or product innovation, so we're posing the question...
Analysis or Stewardship: Which is the key hurdle to biodata insight?
