Topic: Genomics

Dear Colleagues,

As a continuation of the NHGRI seminar series focused on the “Bold Predictions for Human Genomics by 2030,” please join us for the third seminar in the series on Monday, April 12 from 3:00 – 4:30 pm ET. This seminar will focus on Bold Prediction #3: The general features of the epigenetic landscape and transcriptional output will be routinely incorporated into predictive models of the impact of genotype on phenotype. Dr. Tom Gingeras of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and Dr. Tuuli Lappalainen of Columbia University and the NY Genome Center will use this prediction as an aspirational theme for their talks, highlighting their own research in the context of that theme and speculating about the next decade in their research areas. The talks will be followed by a moderated question-and-answer session. All seminars will be open to the public and recorded for posting on GenomeTV.
