Statement of Scope:
This conference will unite researchers from academia and industry to discuss the latest developments
in genetics and genomics of prevention of disease in farmed, wild, and companion animals. The
progress of future research to protect animal health requires deliberate multi-species and multi-disciplinary
integration. State-of-the-science presentations from invited speakers and contributed papers will provide
the foundation for futuristic discussions of the role of genomics in improving animal and human health.
