Hamilton Regional Clinical Genetics Conference

Advancing clinical genetics through professional peer-to-peer education and the latest scientific research.

Our Conference

We started in 2015 as a way for genetic counsellors at Hamilton Health Sciences to share major updates in their area of clinical specialty. We quickly grew to include other clinical centers across Ontario. With the COVID-19 pandemic we transitioned to a virtual model and had attendees from across North America. We have since returned to a hybrid model so that genetic counsellors from all over the world can continue to attend.

 

Our conference is built for genetic counsellors, by genetic counsellors, and are dedicated to highlighting clinical excellence in Canada. Our mission is to provide an affordable conference for local networking while providing clinical insights and updates to enhance the quality of care for patients and advocacy for the profession.
