2026 HudsonAlpha GTAC: Health Harmony

Advances in genomic research have provided valuable insights into human health. Health Harmony is designed to help educators understand the connection between genomic research and its impact on health. Hear from researchers, engage in hands-on activities that will bring meaning to complex concepts, and return to the classroom with the tools needed to facilitate meaningful experiences with your students.
