What You're Missing Matters: Advancing Infectious Disease/ Microbiology & Genomics Across the Nordics & Baltics
:quality(80))
Hear how laboratories and healthcare systems across the Nordics and UK are implementing Oxford Nanopore technology into routine clinical diagnostic practice. Learn how Sweden is leveraging nanopore sequencing to strengthen national infectious disease surveillance, and also how Nordic countries is using full-length 16S sequencing to improve microbial identification and clinical microbiology workflows.
Further, get insights how the UK NHS is implementing respiratory metagenomics to deliver faster, more comprehensive diagnoses for patients with respiratory infections. Join microbiologists, infectious disease specialists, clinical laboratory professionals, and public health experts from across the Nordics & Baltics to discover how nanopore sequencing is transforming infectious disease diagnostics, surveillance and public health. The program will also explore applications in pathogen genomics, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance, outbreak investigation, metagenomics and genomic epidemiology, showcasing how real-time sequencing is enabling rapid, actionable insights for clinicians, microbiologists and public health agencies.
Alongside presentations from regional experts and Oxford Nanopore scientists, you'll have the opportunity to network with peers, discuss best practices, see the latest technology developments and discover how nanopore sequencing can support your laboratory today and into the future.
Please note that this is an in-person event.
