Technical program

The technical program will feature tutorials, spotlight academia and industry talks, hands-on challenges, and poster sessions covering topics such as DNA synthesis and sequencing, data compression and constrained coding, error correction and data retrieval, security in DNA storage, and computing with DNA.

You can find the list of posters that will be presented on Tuesday and Thursday afternoon here.

The program features a series of Spotlight Talks highlighting innovative perspectives from both industry and academia. These sessions provide participants with an opportunity to discover current advances, real-world applications, and emerging research directions in the field.

Industry Spotlight Talks:

• Marthe Colotte (Imagene)

• Melpomeni Dimopoulou (Pearcode)

• Ignas Galminas (Genomika)

• Frédéric Chéron (INA)

Academia Spotlight Talks:

• Victoria Bloquert (ESPCI CNRS Paris)

• Sandra Jaudou (ESPCI CNRS Paris)

• Michela Testolina (I3S, CNRS)

The school will also feature a hands-on “Sequencing and Decoding” on-site challenge, organized by Vasily Shenshin and Dominique Lavenier. A pre-synthesized pool of DNA oligos will be sequenced on-site using Nanopore technology, and participants will be challenged to apply decoding methods to reconstruct and identify the stored information!
