Welcome to the 52nd EEMGS and 15th ICAW official website!
The 2024 meeting “Fundamental genomics. New approaches. Solutions for the changing environment and human health.” will focus on basic research in the field of genomics, environmental sciences, and mutagenesis. It will feature prominent participation from regulatory professionals and industry representatives. Preceding the conference, there will be an associated HESI workshop, and the ICAW event will be integrated into the final days of the conference.
See you all in Rovinj! Your organizers – the EEMGS and the Croatian Genetic Society
