The 2022 Population, Evolutionary, and Quantitative Genetics Conference promotes cross-disciplinary exchange between researchers doing theoretical and experimental work in these broad fields. Building on the successes of #PEQG20, #PEQG18, and #PEQG16, the 2022 conference will span a diverse array of topics across Evolutionary Genetics, Population Genetics, Quantitative Genetics, and Science & Society. In addition to the invited speakers in the Plenary Sessions and abstract-driven Platform Sessions, the 2022 meeting will feature an Equity and Inclusion Plenary Session, the James F. Crow Award Symposium, and a wide range of professional development and networking events.

#PEQG22 will be held in-person at the Asilomar Conference Grounds in sunny Pacific Grove. This 107-acre protected coastal state park is located on the Monterey Peninsula. Explore miles of trails that lead you along the beautiful coastline as well as through the park. It’s the perfect environment in which to learn, share research, and meet with colleagues.
We would love to see everyone at Asilomar, though we realize some may not be able to travel. For those who can’t make it to #PEQG22 in Pacific Grove, virtual registration will offer opportunities to present as well as online access to abstract-driven oral presentations, poster PDFs, professional development events, and more.
The James F. Crow Early Career Researcher Award recognizes students and recent PhDs conducting population, evolutionary, or quantitative genetics research. Finalists for the Crow Award will present their work at #PEQG22 in a high-profile Plenary session. Applications are due January 12, 2022.
Virtual participant registration fees for full-time residents of any country on the World Bank Low-income Economies or United Nations Least Developed Country list will be waived. Please complete the waiver application by February 1, 2022 to receive information on how to register for virtual attendance.
We understand that making future travel plans is difficult right now. Registrants may change their registration from in-person to virtual or from virtual to in-person until April 1, 2022.
In addition to implementing a vaccination mandate for all in-person attendees, GSA will adhere to the latest CDC, state, and local guidelines to create the safest possible meeting environment. Please review our Conference Policies for full policy information on vaccinations, cancellations, Code of Conduct, and registration changes.
The Genetics Society of America (GSA) is an international community of biologists from all career stages and more than 50 countries.
