Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following event: 5th Plant Genomics & Gene Editing Congress: USA

 

A key focus of the event is facilitating collaboration between senior representatives from industry and academia. In terms of content, the conference will examine the latest NGS, ‘omic’ and gene editing technologies being used for progressing plant-based research, as well other genetic-focused aspects of plant science.

Plant research has transformed dramatically over the last few years as a result of revolutionary breakthroughs and cost reductions in sequencing technology. Successful sequencing of many plants, along with the improvement of biological data sets, have given plant scientists the tools and knowledge to make exciting developments to benefit agriculture. Novel gene editing technologies like CRISPR will take this research even further.
