All of Us & AnVIL Imputation Service Virtual Workshop
Attendees will hear about the development of the service, learn to submit data to the service for imputation, and perform a down stream analysis calculating a polygenic risk score on data imputed with the service.

International nomenclature for genomics for complex numerical and structural abnormalities
This workshop is suitable for all staff working in genomics, especially those working in the field of cytogenomics. The recently released International System for Cytogenomic Nomenclature (ISCN) 2024 will be presented with worked complex examples for participants and a Q&A session.

Workshop: Making All of Us for all of us: Exploring how the All of Us genomic dataset has grown
This session will provide an interactive, guided demonstration of the public facing genomic tools, including the new PheWAS x GWAS data browser as well as an interactive, guided demonstration of our cloud computing platform, the Researcher Workbench. It will also provide participants a hands-on opportunity to replicate a research study with new genomic data types including structural variant and long reads data. Instructors will conduct an interactive Q&A session to engage attendees about the All of Us Researcher Workbench and the novel technology implemented to conduct genomic analyses.

Workshop: Advocacy in Action: Effective Techniques for Shaping Science Policy
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!

Workshop: Teaching Variant Curation through Team-based, Active Learning Approaches
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.

Workshop: Accessing and analyzing All of Us biomedical and genomic data via the Researcher Workbench
Dr. Julie R. Coleman, Dr. Shamika Ketkar, and Dr. Jinyoung Byun of the All of Us Evenings with Genetics (AoUEwG) Research Program at Baylor College of Medicine will provide training on the platform and tools to access and analyze the NIH’s All of Us data.
