The Korean Genome Organization (KOGO) 2026 will take place from September 3–5, 2026, at the Sejong University Convention Center in Seoul, South Korea.
Illumina will participate in KOGO 2026 to engage with the genomics research community and showcase its expanding multiomics portfolio. Through its two exhibition booths and Industry Workshop, Illumina will highlight solutions including Illumina Protein Prep, TruPath™, ICM, 5-base sequencing, Single Cell, and Spatial technologies.
The Industry Workshop will feature a presentation from Prof. Jungmin Choi (Korea University) on a five-layer multiomic atlas of immune aging. The study integrates whole genome sequencing, DNA methylation, plasma proteomics, flow cytometry, and single-cell RNA sequencing to explore age-associated changes across multiple biological layers and demonstrate the value of multiomic data integration.
At the Illumina booth, attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about Illumina's genomics and multiomics solutions and discuss applications across genomics, proteomics, single-cell, and spatial biology research.
The Illumina-sponsored Industry Workshop will present a five-layer multiomic analysis of immune aging combining genomic, epigenomic, proteomic, flow cytometry, and single-cell datasets.

| Talk Title | A Five-Layer Multi-Omic Atlas of Immune Aging and Convergent Proteostasis |
| Abstract | This presentation introduces a five-layer multiomic atlas of immune aging generated from whole genome sequencing (WGS), DNA methylation, plasma proteomics, flow cytometry, and single-cell RNA sequencing data. The study identifies key characteristics of immune aging and reveals convergent biological signatures across multiple data layers, highlighting the value of integrated multiomic approaches for understanding age-associated immune system changes. |
