PacBio and DNAnexus invite you to attend our upcoming Webinar Series focused on best practices for analyzing SMRT® Sequencing data:


Brett HanniganSession 1: Rapid Reference-Quality Genome Assembly
May 4, 2016
8:00 a.m. PST, 11:00 a.m. EST, 5:00 p.m. CET

Brett Hannigan, PhD, Computational Biology Project Leader at DNAnexus, will demonstrate a fast, accurate, and cost-efficient solution for de novo genome assembly by running FALCON on the DNAnexus Platform.  In this webinar, we’ll examine the challenges around assembling the tobacco genome (comprised of 4.5 billion base pairs) which is tetraploid in nature and highly repetitive.

Session 2: Simplifying Structural Variant Discovery

June 16, 2016
8:00 a.m. PST, 11:00 a.m. EST, 5:00 p.m. CET


Andrew Carroll, PhD, Director of Science at DNAnexus will present how to greatly improve the accuracy of SV-calling by using fast and easy-to-run cloud-optimized apps (PBHoney, Parliament, & Sniffles).  
In this webinar, we’ll discuss how sequencing coverage correlates with the ability to accurately call structural variants, to inform decisions about the ideal depth to sequence.
