Training School Events and Webinars
In order to improve skills and tissue typing knowledge, GenDx offers comprehensive training in Sequencing-Based HLA Typing (HLA SBT and NGS) through present and online conferences through their Training School.
They also host informative webinars that will help you understand how the reagents and software work.
Below there is a summary of the recent training activities.

Learn multiplexed HLA typing by NGS
October 16 - 18, 2019. Utrecht, The Netherlands.
The 2.5 day intensive training course teaches participants NGS-Based HLA Typing from the basics up to advanced levels. It includes hands-on laboratory work of the complete NGS HLA workflow and data analysis.
Last sessions:
How to deal with a Null allele
Tuesday 8 October. 12:00 pm. Online.
Some HLA alleles are not expressed as functional proteins. Such ‘Null alleles’ have serious implications for transplantations. In this webinar, Erik Rozemuller, Senior Scientist Bioinformatics, will explain what a Null allele is and show examples of different types of Null alleles with the GenDx NGSengine software.
