Abstract submissions are officially open for the HGSA 49th Annual Scientific Meeting, and we’re inviting contributions across a wide range of clinical genetics themes. Whether your work advances diagnostics, reshapes clinical care, or pushes the boundaries of future‑focused genomics, we want to hear from you.
Call for Abstracts spans the full spectrum of contemporary genetics practice, from cardiac and cancer genetics to metabolic disease management and the rapidly evolving field of repeat expansions. Clinical Themes also explore neurodevelopment and neurodegeneration, adult‑onset conditions, fertility and prenatal genetics, and the expanding role of newborn screening. Abstracts will also delve into the delivery of genetics and genomics in clinical settings, advances in diagnostic tools, the growing influence of polygenic risk, and future‑focused approaches shaping the next era of precision healthcare.
Join us in shaping a dynamic, multidisciplinary program for Christchurch 2026. Your research, insights, and innovations are central to the conversation.
