The 22nd KOGO Winter Symposium

The 22nd KOGO Winter Symposium will be held from February 4–6, 2026, at Vivaldi Park in Hongcheon, Gangwon‑do.

Illumina will once again participate in this year’s symposium to showcase our latest capabilities in multi‑omics and integrated analysis. We will highlight key applications such as single‑cell sequencing, 5‑base/methylation profiling, and proteomics, demonstrating how Illumina platforms seamlessly support a broad range of next‑generation research needs. In addition, we will introduce Illumina Connected Analytics (ICM), our integrated multi‑omics data analysis solution that enables streamlined, scalable insights across diverse data types.

At the Illumina booth, attendees will also have the opportunity to explore MiSeq and i100 demo instruments, providing a hands‑on experience with our widely adopted NGS platforms. Through these activities, Illumina aims to offer practical insights and empower researchers to advance their multi‑omics studies with greater efficiency and impact.
