Sun, Sequencing, and Spatial: Day One at AGBT 2025

The Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) meeting is off and running on Marco Island, FL. And this year is the 25th anniversary! Julianna LeMieux, PhD, Deputy Editor-in-Chief at GEN is on the ground—in the talks, visiting suites, and at the coffee hours. Here, she takes a moment to fill in Kevin Davies, PhD, GEN’s Editorial Director on the latest news from the first day at the meeting.

LeMieux talks about the opening session, including a talk by David Altshuler, MD, PhD, CSO of Vertex Pharmaceuticals and a cameo by President Bill Clinton. She also shares industry insights from companies like Illumina, Bruker, and Pixelgen.
