PACBIO INDUSTRY WORKSHOP

25 years of discovery: Building the future of genomics together
Friday, October 17 | 12:00pm – 1:00pm ET
Room 153ABC, Level 1

For 25 years, our knowledge of genomics has grown through innovation and collaboration, driving breakthroughs and discoveries that once seemed impossible. This workshop will celebrate the power of collaboration and shared knowledge in advancing human genomics. We’ll explore how HiFi sequencing is enabling new insights into complex biology and disease, empowering large-scale studies that connect researchers worldwide. Attendees will also hear about the latest updates and innovations in PacBio technology, designed to help the community do more with every run. Join us to reflect on the journey so far and discover how working together will shape the next era of genomics innovation.

This workshop is an opportunity to connect with peers, exchange ideas with experts, and explore how HiFi sequencing can be applied in your own research. A complimentary box lunch will be provided while supplies last.

Beyond DNA: Connecting Genomes, Transcriptomes, and Proteomes with HiFi Sequencing

Understanding biology requires more than DNA sequence alone. This CoLab will demonstrate how multiomic applications with HiFi sequencing, from full-length isoform detection to integrated proteogenomics, are advancing knowledge of human cell types and disease pathways. Learn how long-read multiomics provides a more comprehensive view of biology, revealing connections between genetic variation, isoforms, and protein diversity.

New frontiers: Expanding the capabilities of HiFi sequencing with cutting-edge technology updates

PacBio technology continues to evolve, helping researchers gain more insight from each sample.

This session will feature: 1) advances in long-read epigenomics using Fiber-seq from EpiCypher to provide integrated chromatin accessibility, genome, and methylome information from a single WGS library and sequencing run, and 2) workflow and platform updates on Revio that improve efficiency, scalability, and cost. Join us to see how emerging technologies are reshaping the future of long-read sequencing and genomics research.
