Global Genomics Conference 2022

Hosted by Public Policy Projects (PPP)

PPP’s Global Genomics Conference (GGC) will provide a platform for the exploration and discussion of some of the key policy and ethical considerations of participation in genomics and builds upon the more specific work that PPP has conducted and is conducting in the UK specifically and via our global genomics programmes of work.

Public Policy Projects (PPP) intention is not to lead with the science – there are many other, better qualified, fora for these discussions – but to lead with policy, both very specific, actionable policy when it comes to the UK specific discussions and broader policy insights when it comes to areas of global focus.

This is a four day event, starting on 23rd of May 2022. This event consists of three days of webinars and one in-person conference held in London.
