Large Animal Genetic Engineering Summit
Location: Bethesda, MarylandBrief info:
Meeting Objectives:
1) Provide updates on genetic engineering technologies, including genome editing, and their biomedical and agricultural applications in academia and industry.
2) Engage federal agencies, industry representatives and academic researchers in a policy development forum. The focus of this panel discussion will be to: broadly define large animal research areas/topics that include transgenesis; and develop joint strategies to improve funding focused on developing the best animal models for a given trait/disease (dual purpose with dual benefit and beyond).
3) Generate discussion on regulations pertaining to genetically engineered livestock and review the Medical Device Development Tools (MDDT) program.

Animal Genetics and Diseases
Location: Hinxton, Cambridge, UKBrief info:
This meeting will showcase recent advances in genomics, genome editing, and mathematical techniques to understand disease resistance, pathogen evolution and vaccination success. We will discuss the progress and the lessons learned from combining genomic technologies with advanced quantitative methods to combat epidemics and improve livestock systems. The programme will also present advances of precision medicine in companion animals, translational medicine, as well as the societal issues and challenges surrounding animal welfare and regulation.
