Dear colleagues and friends,

I am delighted to invite you to the 56th annual European Human Genetics Conference 2023 that will take place in Glasgow, Scotland, UK, from June 10 to 13th.

The annual ESHG conference is the major scientific and professional event in human genetics which brings together European and international geneticists. Our field is developing extremely fast with important implications for basic science, medicine and society. The scientific programme reflects this broad scope and includes top invited international experts, selected abstract presentations including candidates for young investigators awards, educational sessions and poster presentations. Thus, the conference is a unique opportunity to get inspired for scientific and professional work, share your own results and shape the future of the field.

There is ample opportunity to meet; social interactions culminate at the renowned Monday evening party.

The exhibitors demonstrate the latest products and experiences with new genetic tools.

In recent years we faced unpredictable challenges to meet in person. In response, the ESHG developed a hybrid model of annual conferences with a vision to facilitate the participation of all interested geneticists.

We are looking forward to meeting you in Glasgow!

Borut Peterlin
President
European Society of Human Genetics
