19 November 2022 – Beijing Genomics Institute’s (BGI) Chairman Wang Jian visited the Genome Institute of Singapore, and gave a talk on leveraging the latest high throughput, low-cost technological tools to carry out research on a large population. The talk drew an overwhelming response, and provided a better understanding for our GIS colleagues on BGI’s capabilities and research work.
