We are pleased to announce our second in-person Lange Symposium. This year’s topic was Statistical Genetics. This annual event is hosted by the UCLA Department of Computational Medicine and supported in part by a grant from the National Human Genome Research Institute; R25 HG011845. The Annual Lange Symposium was launched in 2020 to honor UCLA Professor and National Academy of Sciences Fellow Kenneth Lange. The event celebrates the impact of Dr. Lange’s research, mentorship, and teaching over the course of an illustrious career spanning more than four decades.

The October 24 Lange Symposium was held at the UCLA Luskin Conference Center, 14 miles from the location of the American Society of Human Genetics Conference that took place October 25-29, 2022.
Speakers at the 2022 Lange Symposium:
We offer travel awards for attendees who will further the goal of increasing the diversity of the biomedical workforce. This includes persons from underrepresented groups (i.e., racial and ethnic minorities, first-generation college students, and persons with disabilities). You may also apply if you are faculty from an advanced degree granting institution with a high enrollment of underrepresented minority students, who would be interested in partnering with UCLA faculty to make symposium and workshop material available to their students. Travel awards will cover travel within the U.S., meals, and lodging.
