In collaboration with our Greece partner Varelas S.A. Chemicals and Diagnostics, the Hellenic Microbiology Association, the University of Athens and the University of Thessaly, we co-organized the 'NGS in the Modern Clinical Lab: From Theory to Practical Applications' workshop in Athens from November 23-25, 2023.

Over three days, attendees participated in seminars and hands-on wet lab sessions, exploring the use of NGS and MGI DNBSEQ technology in the laboratory. We showcased the efficiency of MGI’s DNSEQ G99 and Platform of Microorganisms Fast Identification (PFI) pipeline in Metagenomics.

Thrilled about potential collaborations, we look forward to sharing MGI's groundbreaking innovations with the market. The workshop was a success, reinforcing our commitment to advancing genomics and sequencing technologies.
