This workshop will consist of three sessions roughly organized as follows:
8:00-10:00 Session One: Transcriptome dynamics
10:30-12:30 Session Two: Trait mapping and genomic selection
13:30-15:40 Session Three: Genome editing and comparative genomics
The majority of time in each session will be dedicated to 20 minute presentations (18 minutes, plus 2 minutes for questions). Each session will feature 3 minute, 3 slide summary presentations for selected poster presenters as well.
