Subject: Gordon Research Conference on Quantitative Genetics
and Genomics
Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2024 20:01:29 -0500
The next Gordon Conference on Quantitative Genetics and Genomics, with the
theme ‘The Interactive Effects of Genetics, Environment and Ontogeny on
Quantitative Traits’ will be held at Lucca, Italy on 16th-21st Feb 2025.
The final programme can be found here
https://www.grc.org/...ence/2025/.
The GRC is a small conference with mainly invited speakers describing
cutting-edge research across the fields of human biology and medicine, plant
and animal improvement in agriculture and evolutionary biology. The meeting
is held entirely in plenary and there is lots of time set aside for
discussion.
Application to attend is via the above website and is due by January 19th,
2025. We encourage all attendees to offer posters - some participants will
be asked to give short talks based on their poster abstracts.
The conference will be preceded by the Gordon Research Seminar on 15th-16th
Feb at the same venue, which is specifically for early career scientists,
especially PhD students. We will be hosting several senior scientists from
academia, industry, and academic publishing for a panel discussion on careers
in quantitative genetics who will also serve as mentors throughout the GRS
and GRC. Because the GRS and GRC are intentionally small and focus on
interactions between participants, they are ideal places to meet with
scientists at a range of career stages and are a great opportunity for PhD
students to broaden their network. The GRS plan so far can be found here:
https://www.grc.org/...ence/2025/.
Application to attend the GRS is via the above website. All GRS participants
are required to provide a poster abstract on the application and may be
selected to give a talk based on their abstract. There are still many slots
available for talks and applications are due by November 10 to be considered
for a talk. Applications for those only interested in bringing posters are
due by January 18th, 2025.
