Wellcome Genome Campus Conference: Animal Genetics and Diseases The second conference in this series will highlight recent advances in animal genetics and genomic technologies. Novel genomic technologies, mathematical modelling and quantitative genetics approaches, applied to host animals, as well as their pathogens, have transformed the understanding of animal diseases, host-pathogen interactions and epidemiology and their effects on productivity of farmed animal species and food supply chains. This year’s conference will not only put the spotlight on the immune response of host animals and epidemiology but also cover the genetics and genomics of pathogens and the impact of animal-human relationships. We encourage registrations from researchers, breeders and technical specialists interested in learning and disseminating the latest cutting-edge techniques and methodologies across model species, wildlife, farmed animals and companion animals. Key deadlines Early Bird: 12 February 2019 Bursary: 26 February 2019 Abstract: 12 March 2019 Registration: 9 April 2019 May 08 2019 00.00 - May 10 2019 23.59 Wellcome Genome Campus Conference: Animal Genetics and Diseases The conference will bring together specialists working on the interface of genomics, genetic engineering and infectious disease with the aims of improving animal and human health and welfare.
