Human Genome Meeting (HGM) 2019

Human Genome Meeting (HGM) 2019 is organized by Human Genome Organisation (HUGO) International and will be held from Apr 24 - 26, 2019 at Ewha Womans University, Seoul, South Korea.

Course Description:
The theme of the HGM2019 - "Towards Implementing Genomic Medicine" reflects the current trend of translating genomics research into medical applications, which inevitably requires merge of state-of-the-art technologies such as big data analytics, population-scale genomics, single cell genomics, genome editing, etc. HGM2019 will be a platform to highlight recent progresses in these fascinating new science and technologies.

HGM 2019 will bring together renowned geneticists, clinician, bioinformaticians, and other health-care professionals involved in translational genomics. We will have prominent keynote lectures, scientific sessions addressing recent advances in genome technologies, and fruitful discussions to promote exchange of data and ideas. Drawing on a truly broad-reaching and international line up of experts, HGM2019 promises to be both a dynamic forum for scientific exchange and a unique opportunity to bring together global expertise all focused on the subject of "Towards Implementing Genomic Medicine".
