In this webinar, Paul W. Hook, PhD, former leader of the Bioinformatics SIG, provides insight into his current work using cleavage under targets and release using nuclease (CUT&RUN) to measure protein-DNA binding with nanopore sequencing. Dr. Hook will introduce CUT&RUN, detail computational analysis while highlighting software used, present results, and explain how this method may be used in the future. A time for Q&A will follow the presentation.

This webinar will introduce advocacy framed around U.S. policy-making, ASHG’s role in the biomedical research advocacy community, and why it is essential for scientists to take action.

This webinar will introduce attendees to the career-enhancing ASHG-NHGRI Genomics and Public Service Fellowship Program. Learn about the four different fellowship options, why they might be right for you, and how to make your application stand out. Hear from mentors and fellows about their experiences and get your questions answered!

This workshop will use the ACMG/AMP standards and guidelines for germline SNV interpretation as a case study for developing classroom activities that engage learners, develop variant analysis skills, and build confidence in the curation process for students. Throughout the workshop, participants will gain hands-on experience designing instructional activities for clinical genetics concepts, assessing the effectiveness of the activities, and constructing an instructional scaffold to guide learners to mastery of the curation process. Participants will also discuss the benefits of teaching in a team-based, active modality.

This workshop is for those passionate about human genetics who want to meaningfully impact the field through advocacy. You will gain foundational and practical skills to become an advocate, building on ASHG's ongoing efforts and highlighting available advocacy tools to the broader research community. This session is your invitation to step into the world of advocacy, armed with newfound knowledge and practical skills. Don't miss the chance to unlock your advocacy potential. No prior advocacy experience required!

This workshop is intended for anybody interested in learning CRISPR-based technologies.

This workshop will showcase new data types and new features of the UCSC Genome Browser.

The goal of this session will be to review the process of developing and submitting trainee grants.

Presenters will review techniques for crafting your message to maximize its impact.
