The Scientific Program Committee of the International Imaging Genetics Conference invites the scientific community to submit abstracts of their current research to be peer reviewed and considered for inclusion in the scientific program as poster presentations. All accepted abstracts will be published on the conference website. The poster sessions are an important aspect of the scientific program as they promote greater interaction between the researcher and other scientists.
