Dear all,

There are only 2 seats left for the 2nd edition of the course "Analysis of Prokaryotic Pangenomes" in April (15-17).

Dive into the evolving field of pangenomics and discover the implications of genetic variation in closely related prokaryotes. Through theory and hands-on practice, you'll explore bacterial genomes, construct pangenomes, analyze gene relationships, and more.
