Pre-meeting Workshop: Wednesday 26 - Thursday 27 June
Before our annual meeting, we will host a workshop from 26 - 27 June, "Hybridization capture, hyRAD, and targeted capture: workflows in wet and dry lab.”
Thursday afternoon/evening: Optional meetings for labs wishing to discuss ongoing or new collaborations. Being linked within the SPP is among the most important aspects of any priority program. Rooms for small meetings are available all afternoon and evening, or simply go to the Augustiner Keller (18:30h – 21:00h)
Attendees of the pre-meeting workshop on 27. June at the steps of the Munich Botanical Garden.
