NERLSCD Meeting Hosted by Tim Bushnell and John Ashton
Friday, August 26, 2022
The Northeast Regional Laboratory Staff & Core Directors meeting is coming to Rochester this fall and will be co-hosted by CART’s Timothy Bushnell, PhD and John Ashton, PhD.
The NERLSCD meeting has emerged as one of the best annual regional gatherings for core facility directors, managers, staff and administrators to network with colleagues, learn about biotechnology advances and applications, discuss the challenges faced in implementing shared research resources, and to share stories of success.
The event is open to anyone who would like to register and attend and takes place October 12-14.
Enjoy technical workshops, discussion forums, and a special event at the Rochester Museum & Science Center. Mingle with attendees representing academic core facilities spanning from North Carolina to Quebec.

Introduction to Single Cell RNAseq Analysis Workshop
The Genomics Research Center is hosting an informatics workshop series: Introduction to single cell RNAseq analysis. The series will have four sessions, and each session will be split into a 45 minute lecture followed by a hands-on computational workshop that builds on the information covered in the lecture. Please note that attendance to the lecture is a prerequisite for the hands-on workshop that day.
Update (4/22/22): In-person attendance is full. Only remote is currently available
