About the Genomic Innovator Seminar Series:
The Genomic Innovator Seminar Series is based on its Genomic Innovator Award Program, which supports innovative work by early-career genomics investigators who are part of consortia or other team-science efforts. Each seminar focuses on a specific topic of genomic research by pairing an early-career researcher funded under NHGRI’s Genomic Innovator Award Program with a more senior researcher whose work relates to the research area.
