2 ABOUT THE CONFERENCE The Canadian Institutes of Health Research Institute of Genetic (CIHR-IG), together with the Canadian Gene Cure Foundation, are pleased to host the 5 th Annual Canadian Human and Statistical Genetics Meeting (CHSGM), taking place at the Halifax Harbourfront Marriott in Halifax, Nova Scotia from April 16-19, This conference follows the fourth joint Canadian Human and Statistical Genetics Meeting held in Vancouver, British Columbia, April 18-21, 2015, attended by over 230 people. These meetings are built on the successes of six Canadian Genetic Epidemiology and Statistical Genetics meetings and four Canadian Human Genetics conferences. The conference in 2016 will bring together researchers, clinicians, trainees, and industry representatives to offer mentoring, networking, and collaboration opportunities. The program spans four days and is designed to address the priorities of the Human Genomics community in Canada. This year s edition will include a special focus on the analysis of big data in the context of the development of personalized medicine approaches and integration into the healthcare system. This is highlighted in the work of Newfoundland and Labrador New Translational and Personalized Medicine Initiative, which demonstrates the key role of statistical science in this project. Big data analysis can also be seen in the partnership between Genomics England and Genome British Columbian. To bring together researchers working in different areas of specialty, plenary sessions presented by leading scientists and selected trainees are scheduled with more specific workshops running in parallel tracks.
