About ICG-19

Dear colleagues and friends around the globe, the organizing committee of the ICG-19 is thrilled to announce the 19th International Conference on Genomics (ICG-19-THA) will be held at the Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok on May 18th and 19th, 2024.

The ICG-19-THA will continue to uphold the spirit of the Human Genome Project (HGP) - "Owned by All, Done by All, Shared by All", advocating for global and human-wide sharing, especially promoting international cooperation among developing countries.

This year's conference promises to be meaningful, featuring not only the traditional academic sessions of ICG but also introducing an intriguing forum - Transformation and Application in Longevity. This session will focus on how advancements in genetic technology can contribute to healthy aging in humans and further explore the profound impacts of this phenomenon on global econo mies, social structures, retirement systems, and ethical regulations. With global aging becoming a universal challenge, discussions on longevity economics are.
