Masterclass: Recent developments in single-cell genomics/epigenomics
In this masterclass, Jop Kind and invited speakers will familiarize you with the field of single-cell genomics/epigenomics and its applications, including a virtual tour of the single cell epigenomics facility. Advances in single-cell technologies are providing unprecedented opportunities to analyse the complexities of biological systems at exceptional resolutions. They provide means to gain a better understanding of diverse processes such as tumorigenesis, gene expression dynamics and tumour heterogeneity.
Invited speakers
Jake Yeung, Alexander van Oudenaarden, Geert Kops, Luca Braccioli, Floris van den Brekel, Miao-Ping Chien and Joost Gribnau.
