We are excited to have Dr. Eric Green as our Distinguished Keynote for 2012. Dr. Green is the director of the National Human Genome Research Institute based in Bethesda, Maryland. At this event Dr. Green will present his talk "The Human Genomics Landscape: Bringing Genomic Medicine Into Focus".

Dr. Green is responsible for providing overall leadership of the Institute's research portfolio and other initiatives; this requires significant coordination with other NIH components and funding agencies. Most recently, Dr. Green led NHGRI to the completion of a strategic planning process that yielded a new vision for the future of genomics research, entitled Charting a course for genomic medicine from base pairs to bedside (Nature, 470:204-213. 2011).

We are looking forward to his presence bringing significance and enthusiasm to our city!
