Reminder: SeqAfrica September Bioinformatics CoP – Exciting AMRomics demo!
by Pernille Nilsson 04 Sep '24

04 Sep '24

Dear Bioinformatics Community of Practice Members, We hope this email finds you well and thriving in your research endeavors! We are excited to inform you of the upcoming Bioinformatics Community of Practice session, where we will be showcasing the AMRomics workflow. This is a fantastic opportunity to see this tool in action and learn how it can enhance your research projects and AMR work. Date: Thursday 5 September Time: 14.00-14.45 CEST Zoom link: https://dtudk.zoom.us/j/68365887835 Meeting ID: 683 6588 7835 During this session, we will demonstrate the key features and capabilities of the AMRomics workflow and engage in a lively Q&A session/discussion to address all your burning questions. This session promises to be informative and fun and it’s a great chance to connect with fellow community members and share insights. Looking forward to seeing you there with your curiosity and enthusiasm.
