Poster session

Participants are invited to submit posters for the GA4GH 12th Plenary meeting to showcase the work of GA4GH and other related activities that will enable the responsible, voluntary, and secure sharing of genomic and health-related data for the broader genomics and health community. Poster applications will be evaluated by GA4GH staff based on scientific merit and relevance to the GA4GH Strategic Road Map.
