2019 NSHG-PM Symposium
Satellite meeting to the ESHG Annual Conference
Svenska Mässan Conference Center, Gothenburg, Sweden, 14 June 2019
The latest discovery genetics data from the Nordic countries were presented by the next wave of researchers at a full-day symposium sponsored by the Nordic Society of Human Genetics and Precision Medicine. Following a stage-setting talk by NSHG-PM President Kári Stefánsson, each of the Nordic countries presented the latest research from their laboratories in a series of short talks. We wrapped up the day with a discussion of NSHG-PM's current effort to unite research efforts across the Nordic region in order to increase the power to detect genetic variation that affects human health.
