Oxford Nanopore DNA Sequencing and COVID-19

The Laney College biomanufacturing program hosted Danny Grannick from Oxford Nanopore in their first webinar during the COVID-19 shelter-in-place.

Danny begins with an overview of sequencing technology and then turns to applications to health, biopharma, and the fight against the coronavirus.

Here is the full agenda:

• Sequencing and Genomics - brief overview on technology roadmaps and platform differences Oxford Nanopore -
• brief overview Applications - BioPharma, SynBio,
• the role of sequencing for COVID-19
• Where sequencing and genomics is headed - decentralization of sequencing technologies and future/developing applications of genomics
