About the Genomics Seminar Series

The genomics seminar series is open to host relevant talks from any department or program. Currently, we host the Evolutionary Functional Genomics seminar series, which is organized via the Department of Ecology and Evolution (organized by John True & Joshua Rest).

Upcoming Seminars:

May 10, 2016
Detecting Copy Number Variation Linked to Phenotypic Traits.
Craig Lowe, Department of Developmental Biology, Stanford University School of Medicine
11:00 am. – Laufer Center Lecture Hall (room 101)
This talk will concern new computational methods and an application to Threespine Stickleback genomic data.
If you would like to meet with Craig, please send Mike Bell (michael.bell@stonybrook.edu)
