DESCRIPTION:THIS TALK IS CANCELLED DUE TO THE PROBLEM WITH FLIGHTS\n\nThe 
 Illumina HiSeq2000 is a new high-throughput DNA sequencing platform that p
 roduces more than 1 billion reads and over 200 Gb of high quality data per
  run.  We have used the throughput of the HiSeq2000 to create a Gene Expre
 ssion Body Map that includes very deep coverage of transcripts from 16 ind
 ividual human tissues\, a complete map of all coding and non-coding RNAs i
 n the human transcriptome\, a RNA-Seq profiling study of 192 samples\, and
  a whole genome comparison of DNA methylation in a cancer/normal pair.  Ea
 ch of these very large sequencing projects can now be done in a single ins
 trument run using the HiSeq2000.  In this presentation we will review the 
 data from these four projects\, look in detail at the system performance f
 or each application\, and discuss how this new system enables new genome-w
 ide studies in functional genomics.
