ON-DEMAND WEBINAR: NGS Strategies for Vaccine Development and Surveillance of Respiratory Viruses
In this webinar, the expert speaker addresses the inherent challenges associated with analyzing low viral load clinical samples and offers strategies to enhance sensitivity and specificity in NGS-based assays. By leveraging whole-genome sequencing (WGS), NGS enables the simultaneous detection of multiple viral strains within a single sample, shedding light on the complex interplay between different pathogens and their implications for clinical management and public health interventions.
The attendees will gain insights into the intricacy of NGS assay development and validation where considerations such as workflow optimization and methodological choices, including probe-based versus amplicon sequencing, play pivotal roles in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of results.
The expert speaker will also provide a comprehensive overview of NGS tactics for analyzing respiratory RNA viruses and key gene sequences, thus highlighting their role in guiding clinical management, surveillance efforts and outbreak control measures.
