Pre-conference workshop on genomics for tribal colleges at 2017 FALCON conference

On Friday, November 3, 2017 from 3-5 pm, the new Tribal Colleges Consortium on Genomics Training (TCCGT) is holding a pre-conference workshop at the First Americans Land-Grant Consortium (FALCON) 2017 Annual Conference at the Westin Crystal City in Virginia.

TCCGT aims to create a network of tribal colleges and universities dedicated to expanding training and grant opportunities in genomics for tribal college faculty, increasing recruitment and preparation of tribal college students interested in genomics, enhancing genomics curricula at TCUs, and incorporating genomics in the context of traditional views.  Over coffee, treats, and snacks, workshop organizers will host an informal discussion of the new consortium’s purpose, structure, and outcomes.

The workshop is free to attend, but please register here.
