Project Summary The application seeks partial support for the Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar on Quantitative Genetics and Genomics to be held in Ventura, California on February 11-17, 2023. The subtitle of the conference is “Leveraging high-throughput phenotyping techniques to study complex traits”. Complex diseases (e.g. cardiovascular disease) and complex or quantitative traits (e.g. obesity) are of great importance to human health. Over the last decade there has been a revolution in research on these diseases due to availability of DNA variant genotyping, genome sequencing and other “omics” technologies. This revolution is continuing with the availability of enormous datasets such as the UK biobank and USA equivalent with 1,000,000 people all with health records and imputed genome sequence. Extracting maximum knowledge from such data is challenging and this conference will hear of the latest research on this topic. The outcomes from this research include new drug targets and information to support personalised medicine. The overall aim of the conference and seminar is to bring together scientists working in the field of quantitative genetics and genomics to exchange information on the latest results in the field and to discuss the implications of these results. By creating an environment for networking, this conference will promote communication between scientists in the field, encourage new collaborations among those attending, and build a community for early career scientists. The funding sought from NIH is to support young scientists to attend the seminar and conference by assisting them with travel and registration costs.

项目摘要 该申请寻求对戈登研究会议和戈登研究研讨会的部分支持， 定量遗传学和基因组学将于2023年2月11日至17日在加州文图拉举行。的副标题 会议主题是“利用高通量表型分析技术研究复杂性状”。复杂 疾病（如心血管疾病）和复杂或数量性状（如肥胖）非常重要 对人类健康的影响。在过去的十年里，对这些疾病的研究发生了革命， DNA变异基因分型、基因组测序和其他“组学”技术的可用性。这场革命是 继续提供庞大的数据集，如英国生物银行和美国的等价物， 100万人都有健康记录和基因组序列。最大限度地从 这些数据是具有挑战性的，本次会议将听取关于这一主题的最新研究。的结局 这项研究包括新的药物靶点和支持个性化医疗的信息。 会议和研讨会的总体目标是汇集在定量领域工作的科学家， 遗传学和基因组学，交流该领域的最新成果，并讨论其影响 这些结果。通过创造一个网络环境，这次会议将促进交流 在该领域的科学家之间，鼓励与会者之间的新合作，并建立一个社区 早期职业科学家。从NIH寻求的资金是支持年轻科学家参加研讨会 通过协助他们支付差旅费和注册费，
