What:
On behalf of the USDA Animal Genome Blueprint 2028-2037 Steering Committee,
please save the date for the in-person Blueprint workshop on July 18, 2026,
in Madison, WI, USA. This writing workshop, with a limited number of
presentations, will update the previous two Blueprints 2008-2017 and 2018-
2027 developed by the animal genomics community. Over the last two decades
the visions outlined in these documents have served to guide intra- and
extramural research programs at USDA and in the broader international
community. This workshop will revisit the progress made and develop
meaningful and tangible goals for the next decade in developing the third-
generation blueprint for the animal genomics community.
