The African Society of Human Genetics (AfSHG) and the Southern African Society for Human Genetics (SASHG) are very proud to be hosting the ICHG 2021 in Cape Town, which will be held from 7 to 11 March 2021.
This is the first time the International Congress of Human Genetics will be held on the African continent.
South Africa has a remarkable history, with the achievement of democracy two decades ago serving as an inspiration to many around the world. This congress presents an opportunity to showcase Genetics/Genomics across the world, bringing together international experts, as well as young postgraduates addressing challenges in human health and highlighting how genomic technologies are being harnessed to address such challenges.
