The 36th International Mammalian Genome Conference (36th IMGC) was held at the Tsukuba International Congress Center in Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, from March 28 (Tuesday) to 31 (Friday), 2023.
The conference was a hybrid of local and online sessions, with a total of 246 participants (205 local and 41 online), and 129 participants from outside Japan, exceeding the number of domestic participants. In addition to the usual 61 oral and 96 poster presentations, three Technical workshops were held, and on the second and third days, the RIKEN Symposium “Developmental Epigenetics and Advanced Phenotyping Technology” was held in joint sponsorship with RIKEN. On the final day, a workshop was held to provide an opportunity for young researchers to present their latest research and engage in lively discussions.
On the final day, an award ceremony was held to honor young researchers for their outstanding presentations, and a total of 13 researchers, including Japanese, received awards.
