We are happy to announce that IGES 2020 will now be offered in an online format!
- There will be videoconferencing on July 2 - 4 with keynote speakers, the Presidential address, and the Neel and Williams award finalists.
- Posters will be presented virtually, with online questions and discussion, and lightning talks for selected abstracts.
- Abstracts have been published in Genetic Epidemiology, and are available online here.
- Mentorship and social activities will take place in the new online format. (If you missed the deadline to sign up for a mentoring session, please email IGES Organizers and we will try to accommodate you.)

BREAKING NEWS!
We are pleased to announce our late breaking Session on Genetic Epidemiology of COVID-19 and SARS-COV-2. This session will be held July 4th from 9am EDT - 11am EDT (14h00-16h00 in the UK; 9pm - 11pm in Beijing). This session is also at no cost to attend!
Additional Updates:
- The population biobank session will be postponed until our IGES 2021 meeting, to be held just outside Montreal (October 15-18, 2021).
- Given the current fluidity of the COVID-19 situation, the presenters of our Educational Workshop on “Best Practices for Polygenic Scores” will consider alternative options of sharing workshop materials. Additional information will be sent later.
- If you were registered for the Seoul conference, please contact the Organizers if your registration refund has not been processed.
Sincerely,
IGES Administration
