We are pleased to invite you to the Opening Symposium of the Institute for Clinical Genetics and Genomic Medicine (KGGM) at Würzburg University Hospital.
The symposium marks the official start of the recently established KGGM in Würzburg. At the institute, we aim to strengthen genomic medicine at the interface of academic medicine and research and to support everyday clinical decision-making through interdisciplinary collaboration, advanced sequencing and analytical infrastructure, and multi-omics and AI-based approaches where they add clear value.
The program brings together perspectives ranging from population-scale reference data and complex disease genetics to precision approaches in oncology and pediatric medicine. A key focus is practical implementation of robust workflows, clinically meaningful interpretation, and responsible use in patient care. The symposium is designed to foster exchange across disciplines and career stages, with dedicated time for discussion and networking.
We warmly invite you to attend the talks, join the discussion, and connect with the speakers and participants as we open the KGGM in Würzburg.
