Join us at the 2017 West Coast User Group Meeting for a full day of discussion on the applications of SMRT Sequencing. Learn how SMRT Sequencing is helping your peers advance their research in a variety of applications. We are also offering a full day of workshops—Bioinformatics and Sample Preparation—on the day before the UGM. See below for details.



We welcome the participation of those who are considering adopting SMRT Sequencing to join in the discussions and hear directly from existing users.
