We welcome all of you to the 8th Annual Conference of the Society for Indian Academy of Medical Genetics in the majestic capital of the country, New Delhi.

The Society for the Indian Academy of Medical Genetics is guided by the principles of “Test, Treat, Teach', within the unraveling mysteries of the DNA double helix.

This is the era of “BIG DATA”. In this conference we explore the depths of human genomics, the art and science of novel gene discovery, unraveling the genome beyond the “exome-only approach” and providing answers to patients and families with rare, undiagnosed disorders.

We move beyond this space into “Multi-Omics”, to understand biological networks and provide insights into disease. This is the era of integration of layers of biological systems, comprehending the complexities of disease biology. We have experts in proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics, who use these approaches to study human disease as well as transition scientific advances to the clinic for diagnosis and therapy. Functional interpretation of novel variants which e abound in India, will also feature in the sessions of this meeting.

Precision and individualized therapy is the buzz…, once diagnosed, this is the quest of each patient. Appreciation of molecular and disease mechanisms has opened arenas for targeted therapies that form an integral session in this meeting - the established standard of care, treatment and novel innovations in the point-of-care paradigm.

We welcome you to Delhi, promising scientific deliberations beyond the ordinary, a host of excitement and new learnings within the theme of “Translating Omics Revolution to Clinical Care”.

We encourage you to take advantage of the early bird registration to confirm your participation - “the world is your oyster”, so be with us this December and we promise you an enriching experience of unprecedented academics, hospitality and social engagements.

Welcome to the 8th Annual Conference of The Society for Indian Academy of Medical Genetics and Enjoy the feast.
