The UW Department of Genome Sciences played an important role in determining the sequence of the 3 billion letters of DNA specifying all of our hereditary information and is now one of the leading centers where the human genome is being interpreted and where new technologies for this analysis are being developed.

To share these advances with the public the Department of Genome Sciences hosts a 'Wednesday Evenings at the Genome' public lecture series each summer. These exciting discussions assume no background knowledge in genetics or other biological subjects and provide opportunities to chat with our presenters.

Admission is free and open to anyone interested. While UW affiliation is required to view the event remotely, it is not required to view seminar recordings, once these are available.

All lectures take place on Wednesday evenings in the summer on the UW campus, further details forthcoming.
