American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) conference in Los Angeles, CA, October 25-29, 2022

November 8, 2022 by tnordenk

Some of the members of the Norden-Krichmar lab attended the ASHG conference this year to present posters. This was the first in-person meeting of ASHG since October 2019. There were over 7,000 attendees this year. ASHG is the largest human genetics conference in the world. Masks were optional but recommended, so we wore them, except for the brief photo-ops to take these pictures. The abstract titles are listed below.
