The two day event will showcase the impact that the NGS has had on research in the UK, allow delegates to find out more about using the NGS in applied research, enable IT staff to find out how their institution can benefit from the NGS, and how you can contribute to and influence the future development of the NGS.
The first day is primarily aimed at researchers and will feature presentations from existing NGS users that will demonstrate how the NGS has become a powerful research tool in their area. There will be plenty of opportunity for delegates to contribute to the event with 2 breakout sessions covering a variety of topics including community-based sessions where delegates can meet other researchers in their subject area. NGS staff will be on hand throughout the event to speak to delegates about how the NGS could aid their research etc and, for existing users, offering up to the minute advice on optimising your jobs on the NGS. The event will be held in the exciting surroundings of The Magic Circle Headquarters which is a stones throw from Euston train station. A drinks reception will also be held in the venue on the Wednesday evening where participants will have the chance to meet NGS users from a wide range of research areas.
The event is free to attend but registration is required. Delegates are welcome to register for a single day or the full event.
