Harris Lewin, Professor and chair of Earth BioGenome Project, is coming to Oslo!

For the first time in history, it is possible to efficiently sequence the genomes of all known eukaryot species. The Earth BioGenome Project (EBP) aims to sequence all the millions of species so far hidden from science. This project is a moonshot for biology, and has the potential to transform our understanding of life on earth, and to bring innovative solutions to all the big challenges of our time. How can Norway contribute to and benefit from this major opportunity?
