Join us at ACMG 2026
At ACMG 2026, discover how pre-clinical labs and researchers are redefining comprehensive genetic testing with PacBio HiFi sequencing.
With industry-leading long-read accuracy and complete variant detection, HiFi sequencing empowers you to see what other technologies miss, replacing multiple specialized assays with a streamlined, scalable workflow. Ongoing advances in sequencing chemistry, throughput, and automation-friendly workflows are lowering costs and making long-read sequencing more accessible at scale.
Whether you are looking to improve findings in rare disease cases, resolve repeat expansion loci in carrier screening, or accurately phase star allele haplotypes in pharmacogenomics, HiFi sequencing delivers a complete view of clinically-relevant variation in a single assay.
Visit us at booth #2321 to meet PacBio experts, see live demonstrations of our Vega sequencing system, and learn how HiFi sequencing can empower your genetic testing workflows.

Streamlined long-read sequencing for diagnostics research with PacBio
Friday, March 13 | 11:55am – 12:25pm ET
Exhibit Theater 2
PacBio is helping streamline the next generation of genomic testing with long-read sequencing. In this workshop, hear the latest PacBio technology updates and see how labs like Variantyx are evaluating PacBio HiFi sequencing as part of a broader strategy to help advance clinical whole genome testing. The session will highlight perspectives on applying long-read technology to clinical research, show the value of comprehensive variant detection in challenging genomic regions, and discuss considerations for integrating long-read sequencing into pre-clinical workflows. Attendees will gain insight into how HiFi sequencing is reshaping diagnostic research by enabling scalable testing and greater assay consolidation, shortening the path to complete, confident answers.
