SUMMARY:Nanopore London Calling 2027
DESCRIPTION:Oxford Nanopore’s annual conference\, London Calling\, returns to Old Billingsgate in London from 18 to 20 May 2027\, and abstract submission is now open. \nLondon Calling brings together researchers using Oxford Nanopore sequencing to share new methods\, data analysis and real-world applications across science and healthcare. The programme mixes keynotes\, community talks\, interactive and discussion-led sessions\, masterclasses and posters. Tuesday 18 May is a virtual-only day\, while Wednesday 19 and Thursday 20 May run live at Old Billingsgate with online participation too. \nIt is worth a look for dementia and neurodegeneration researchers. Long-read sequencing is increasingly used to pick up repeat expansions\, structural variants\, RNA isoforms and DNA methylation that short-read approaches can miss\, and to explore brain gene activity in Alzheimer’s. \nWhat’s on\nAlongside the main programme\, breakout sessions are organised around real application areas\, with small\, focused discussions. Last year’s Tech Hub covered data analysis\, clinical research applications\, high-throughput sequencing\, experimental design\, and sample and library preparation\, and drop-in Technical Zones focused on adaptive sampling\, transcriptomics and whole-genome sequencing. In person\, the Live Lounge offers hands-on time with the devices and one-to-one conversations with Oxford Nanopore’s experts. \nSubmit an abstract\nAbstract submission for London Calling 2027 is open until Friday 15 January 2027 at 23:59 UK time. Decisions will be sent to all applicants by the end of March 2027\, and details on how to take part\, including any available travel support\, will be shared with successful applicants. \nIf you are pulling one together\, our guide on how to write a powerful conference abstract is a good place to start\, and if you end up with a poster\, here’s how to sell your conference poster on the day. \nQuestions about abstracts go to the events team at events@nanoporetech.com. \nTickets\nVirtual tickets are free. In-person and online tickets for 2027 are due to go on sale soon. For reference\, in-person tickets for 2026 started at £499 on early bird\, with a student rate of £349\, and sold out. \nSubmit your abstract by Friday 15 January 2027 (23:59 UK time). \n\nSubmit an Abstract
