AGBT Breakfast Workshops with Element Biosciences

    Join us for two focused morning workshops exploring scalable genomics and spatial multiomics approaches. Space is limited, select the session you plan to attend below.

    Low-pass whole-genome sequencing plus targeted capture: bridging genomic discovery and genetic selection in working dogs 

    When: Tuesday, February 24, 2026, 8:00 AM
    Where: Citrus Suite

    As genomic selection expands, researchers need approaches that balance cost, scale, and resolution. Using working dog populations as a model, this workshop presents a dual-purpose strategy that integrates low-pass whole-genome sequencing with targeted hybrid capture to enable both genome-wide discovery and high-confidence genotyping at priority loci.

    Acute depletion of the ASD-linked gene SETD5 in human stem cells using a high-plex spatial multi-omics platform

    When: Wednesday, February 25, 2026, 8:00 AM
    Where: Citrus Suite

    Understanding the functional impact of ASD-associated genes requires precise control and high-resolution profiling. This workshop examines acute SETD5 depletion in human induced pluripotent stem cells using inducible protein degradation combined with high-plex spatial RNA and protein analysis.

    Attendees will see how this approach reveals rapid transcriptional changes, cell cycle disruption, and mechanistic insights into neurodevelopmental biology.
