International Conference on the second progress of “1000 Plant and Animal Reference Genomes Project”
On behalf of Prof. Huanming Yang and Prof. Stephen J.O"Brien, we would be very pleased to invite you to attend the International Conference on the second progress of “1000 Plant and Animal Reference Genomes Project”, which will be held from 10th to 12th, July, 2011 in Shenzhen, China.
Along with the completion of many animal and plant genome projects, the ‘1000 Plant and Animal Reference Genomes Project’ has reached a substantial level. Now, more and more collaborative projects have been initiated, and more collaborators are expected to join. It is very timely to have this conference, which aims to provide a platform for idea exchange and leading-edge research discussion on further exploring important species resources, collecting important samples, expanding the coverage of sequencing and building an unprecedented large genome database, which will usher in a new era of global genomics research.
It would be highly appreciated if you would like to attend and respond to us at your earliest convenience time. For any question, including the invitation letter for visa, please write to the organization group at meeting@genomics.cn Thanks for your attention and we are looking forwards to your reply.
