Dear all,
We are excited to invite you to the Fourth Marine Mammal Genomics Workshop (G4), a two-day event designed to spark innovation, enhance global collaboration, and steer the future of marine mammal genomics.
G4 will delve into diverse research themes, including evolution, conservation, diseases, novel methods, genomics on a shoestring, and integrating genomics with traditional knowledge. The workshop will feature traditional presentations and panels alongside unique
training and networking opportunities. Innovative sessions like "Bioinformatics Problems Speed Dating" and a project-specific problem-solving panel will expedite collaboration and knowledge sharing, bridging the gap between seasoned experts and emerging researchers.
G4 is committed to addressing field challenges, fostering global engagement with renowned researchers, facilitating meaningful networking opportunities, and offering practical solutions. Inclusivity is a cornerstone of G4, reflected in our efforts such as diverse
global speaker representation, student scholarships favoring applicants from the global South, and prioritizing First Nations community participation.
We are pleased to announce secured funding from the American Genetics Association and are actively sourcing additional funds to support invited speakers and students. If you are interested in receiving student funding for the workshop, please fill out the
Google form by August 15th. Priority will be given to students from the global South. If you are interested in presenting please fill this
Google form.
We look forward to your participation in this exciting event!
Kind regards,
Isabella Reeves, Sebastian Alvarez-Costes, Catherine Meyers and Gabrielle Genty 🌊🐋
