Bioinformatics and Data Handling for Next Generation Sequencing

12th October 2009, Paris, France

The EADGENE workshop on Bioinformatics and Data Handling for Next Generation Sequencing was held in conjunction with the EADGENE Genomics for Animal Health Conference in Paris on Monday 12th October 2009.

The focus of the workshop was the scientists' experiences of a variety of bioinformatics and data handling methods for next-generation sequencing data.
