Abstract
 
During this workshop, you will learn about the latest methods for PacBio sequencing of human genomes to comprehensively detect all variant types (SNVs, Indels, SVs, CNVs), and construct reference-quality human genome assemblies. New high accuracy long-read sequencing data from the Sequel II System will be used to describe analysis methods available to the community for human genetics research. The workshop will be presented by PacBio’s principal bioinformatics scientists, and includes a keynote presentation by Jonas Korlach, Chief Scientific Officer at PacBio.
