Lunch & Learn – October 2020
Accelerating Medicine with Modern Genomics
Thursday, 22 October 2020 | Live stream
Abstract:
Despite many advances in the field of genomics, the standard of clinical care for many disorders, including cancer, involves methods that were developed over 60 years ago. Recent technologies are enabling a massive modernization of this clinical care both in diagnostics and therapeutics. We’ll discuss how HPC is a critical component in this modernization.
