The QIAGEN team is about to get its barbecue on. That’s right, this week we’re heading to San Antonio, Texas, for the 57th annual meeting of the Society of Toxicology! We’ll also be participating in ToxExpo, the meeting’s exhibit hall. If you’ll be attending, please visit us in booth #1564. We’d love to get a chance to show you how QIAGEN bioinformatics tools are being used in this exciting space.
The SOT meeting attracts more than 6500 attendees from toxicology-related and biomedical organizations. It’s a great gathering of experts who study adverse effects of chemical or biological agents, with discussions around the latest science and regulations along with plenty of continuing education. This year, poster sessions will last all day to give attendees more time to browse the newest innovations and findings.
Here at QIAGEN, our bioinformatics solutions are deployed by many scientists for in-depth toxicology analysis. QIAGEN’s OmicSoft tools are broadly used across pharmaceutical and biotech companies for toxicology research, while our Ingenuity Pathway Analysis tool helps scientists examine and interpret toxicological effects on gene expression, proteomics and metabolomics. We are humbled to see how researchers have adopted these tools for meaningful studies that will ultimately keep our society safer.
We hope to see you in San Antonio!
We're excited to be a part of the 12th annual SFAF in Santa Fe, New Mexico, May 16-18. The three-day conference covers NGS and its applications and in particular how these are playing a significant role in the genomics field.
We’re delighted to invite you to our traditional pre-conference workshop at this year’s annual “Sequencing, Finishing and Analysis in the Future Meeting” (SFAF) 2017. The four-hour workshop offers hands-on training in the QIAGEN CLC Genomics ProSuite. Based on CLC Genomics Workbench, this amazing software bundle provides tools and workflows optimized for metagenomics, microbiome profiling, pathogen typing and genome-based outbreak investigations. The training includes a complimentary trial software license and covers many features, from how to analyze metagenomic data to ways of detecting pathogens in a metagenomic sample.
Topic: Microbial genomics and metagenomics software training (includes complementary trial license)
Date/time: Monday, May 15, 4.00 p.m. – 8.00 p.m. MDT
Location: Santa Fe Room, La Fonda Hotel
Speaker: Dr. Arne Materna, Director of Microbial Solutions, QIAGEN
We look forward to meeting you at SFAF in Santa Fe.
We are very pleased to announce QIAGEN’s acquisition of OmicSoft, a market-leading provider of biomarker data management, visualization and analysis products. OmicSoft’s products are based on “Lands,” which are curated and standardized public data sets in oncology (“OncoLand”), major disease areas, including immunology and cardiovascular disease (DiseaseLand) and genetic research (GeneticsLand).
The product portfolio also includes “Array Server,” OmicSoft’s enterprise-scale, multi-omic data management offering, and “Array Studio,” a graphical user interface to browse, analyze and visualize data from NGS sequencing, microarray and other technologies.
Dr. Laura Furmanski, Senior Vice President and Head of the Bioinformatics Business Area at QIAGEN.
