A Look Back at the CAGS

In October 2023,The Center for Advanced Genomics welcomed attendees to Charlottesville, Virginia for the Inaugural CAG Symposium covering SNP genotyping, bioinformatics, genealogy, and ethical and legal considerations for FIGG. Participants shared perspectives, new developments, and the latest research on FIGG in an open, dedicated forum and left with new professional connections for future, collaborative FIGG pursuits.
