Welcome to precision genomics at scale

Tuesday, October 20 • 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM ET • Le Centre Sheraton Montréal

We're bringing the Ultima Genomics community together for our 3rd annual User Group Meeting before ASHG. This year we're celebrating the launch of the UG200 Platform featuring Solaris 2.0 Max chemistry, delivering unmatched productivity, greater flexibility, and higher accuracy with features like paired-end sequencing. We'll explore how these advances are enabling customers to do more with Ultima and transform their most data-intensive applications. We will also highlight how this enablement has led to some of the largest omics initiatives ever undertaken, paving the way to more informative patient care.

This will be an opportunity to hear from early users and leaders across the academic, clinical, and translational research communities who are transforming science with Ultima: from whole genome sequencing, to ppmSeq, to large-scale single cell omics studies.

Registration will open at 8:00 AM.
We will have a continental breakfast, followed by a buffet lunch.
