ISOGG Day Out (GGI2018 Dublin)

Once again, Gerard Corcoran (ISOGG Ireland Representative) has organised a fantastic agenda for our traditional ISOGG Day Out on the Monday after the conference (i.e. Monday Oct 22nd). This year we are visiting Genomics Medicine Ireland and the Harbour Innovation Campus.

Places are limited to only 20 people and the GGI2018 speakers and volunteers on the FTDNA stand get first pick. Any places left available after that will be available on a first-come first served basis to ISOGG members. If you would like to be considered for a place among the Lucky 20, please leave your details in the Comments section below.

There may be some future changes to the agenda (due to unforeseen circumstances) but such changes are not currently anticipated.

  2. My Genetic cousin Peter Mannion will also be attending GGI. If a space is available please include but he would be a lower priority as I believe he would have other things he could do if short on availability. Thanks, Jim

    1. I'll put you & Peter on the Waiting List, Jim. If you don't make the cut, you can always join us for dinner in the evening. :-)
