 h any message)\, you should get a bounce-back with three options to confir
 m your subscription. Follow any of those options\, and with a bit of luck 
 you should be signed up!\n\nAs a reminder\, the (gen)omics seminar series 
 runs every other Tuesday morning and is intended to increase interaction b
 etween individuals working in genomics across Oxford. We encourage in-pers
