Western Growers is hosting the last webinar in the WGS series titled “Whole Genome Sequencing in the Industry: Metagenomics and Beyond,” on May 28, 2020. This presentation will bring expertise in novel new applications of next-generation sequencing beyond whole genome sequencing, such as metagenomics. Pablo Carrion, Senior Research Quality Scientist at Nestle, will share how Nestle is pushing the frontiers of technology toward a data-oriented food safety approach with these tools. Don’t miss this opportunity!

As previously reported in Spotlight, this series contains five WGS webinars, occurring once a month from January to May. After addressing the basics of WGS, subsequent webinars will focus on sequencing protocols, case studies, regulatory applications and novel applications of the next generation of WGS, such as metagenomics.
