DKFZ ONT User Meeting
Join us at DKFZ for a morning of Oxford Nanopore technology updates, research insights, and exchange with fellow users.
Discover recent technical developments and applications with Ibrahim Cemel from Oxford Nanopore Technologies, followed by a presentation from Manas Sehgal of the Frank Westermann Group at DKFZ. Manas will introduce nf-core/nanosomatic, showcasing a workflow that takes long-read nanopore sequencing data through to high-confidence somatic structural variant detection.
Designed for DKFZ researchers, this local user meeting offers an opportunity to explore new approaches, discuss practical experiences, and connect with the Oxford Nanopore community at DKFZ.
Date: 22 October 2026
Time: 10:30–12:00
Location: Glaskasten, 2nd floor, Technologiepark 3, Im Neuenheimer Feld 580
