The Gordon Research Seminar on Quantitative Genetics & Genomics is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas. Identification of causal genetic variants underlying complex phenotypes is paramount to understanding disease, improving crops and livestock to feed a growing world, and elucidating evolutionary processes in nature. This Gordon Research Seminar provides a forum for emerging leaders in the field to discuss cutting-edge advances in genetics, genomics, statistics, bioinformatics, and evolutionary biology.
