Are you a HUGO member?
 
 
Welcome to the 6th HUGO Mutation Detection Training Course 2008 official website.

In 2008, the course will be hosted in Rotterdam (the Netherlands), from October 24th to 28th, 2008 and will be organised by Dr. George P. Patrinos (Erasmus University Medical Center, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, MGC-Department of Cell Biology and Genetics).

The bi-annual HUGO Mutation Detection and Training Courses aim to provide participants a broad and general overview of available and emerging technologies to detect changes in the DNA sequence (SNPs & mutations) and its applications. The courses are primarily aimed at post-graduate, medical and post-doctoral scientists whose research and diagnostic interests could benefit from increased awareness of mutation detection techniques. To ensure active participation and maximum interaction, the course could only accommodate around 60 participants.

In celebration of HUGO’s 20th anniversary, all participants will be accepted as HUGO members with a one year waiver of membership fee worth £35.
