Dear Colleagues, dear Friends, 

​

On behalf of the Scientific and Organizing Committee and the Slovenian Association of Medical Genetics, we would like to warmly welcome you to the 15th Balkan Congress of Human Genetics and 3rd Alpe Adria Meeting of Human Genetics with international participation. 

 

We sincerely hope this joint meeting will present you with an opportunity to meet, share ideas, and form new collaborations with colleagues from the field of Genetics from the Balkans, the Alpe-Adria region and beyond.

 

In addition to lectures on the newest genomics technologies and an overview of regional applicative and research genetics, we hope to address our common challenges and solutions via the Genetic Medicine in Balkan Countries roundtable as well as to set up a Strategy for Future Genomic Medicine via the International genomic forum roundtable. We sincerely hope you will enjoy our Workshops and that they will be the first of many more.

 

Finally, we hope our initiatives will encourage you to join existing platforms aiming to unify practice guidelines and services in the region, and to further advance contemporary medical genetics approaches to help your patients. We kindly invite you to join us in discussing and defining the future of genomic medicine.

 

 

We warmly welcome you at Bled!

 

Nina Vodnjov, Anja Kovanda and Aleš Maver
