Kia ora koutou,

Bruce Weir (University of Washington and Massey University) and Matthieu Vignes (Massey University) are very excited to announce a 4 day-workshop on Statistical Genetics from Tuesday 9 April 2024 morning until Friday 12 April noon, on the Plant & Food Research (PFR) campus in Lincoln. The workshop will consist of a blend of methodological sessions, practical sessions and guest talks. It is co-organised and funded by PFR and Massey University.

A preliminary version of the programme is available here (PDF): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Tr9so0CjNAkFO7hj8JX7z9EXo3Q4lKP2/view

The workshop is free (incl. tea breaks and lunches), but registration is mandatory. To register your interest, please use the following registration form https://forms.gle/KFXWs2kHKVUp1ZYE6. Note that the workshop is limited to 30 participants (not including guest speakers) so it is important to motivate your registration and to commit to attending the full duration of the workshop. Preference will be given to postgrad students and early-career researchers. We might run another version of the workshop if enough interest arises.

Looking forward to seeing you in Lincoln.

Kia pai te rā,

Bruce and Matthieu
