On March 5 of this year, X-Gen Congress & Expo convened in San Diego, CA. 350 participants from 17 countries, and over 200 companies, spent three days networking and discussing the potential of established and emerging genomic technologies. The genomics revolution continues to present the following challenges and opportunities, along with exciting new applications, as well as, case studies, and best practices. Each program at X-Gen Congress & Expo 2012 featured 100 presentations and discussions offering different views and perspectives on poignant issues that the field currently faces, while also able to facilitate networking opportunities and peer collaborations.
