英文摘要
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.
