The Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) Project Community Meeting - Barcelona, Spain

The GTEx Community meeting is held annually and is open to the scientific community who are interested in learning more about the project and data, or who are already using the data in their research. Prior meetings have been held in the US at the Broad Institute (2014), the University of Chicago (2015) and at Stanford University (2016). This year, for the first time the meeting will be held in Europe, in Barcelona in April 20 - 21, 2017 following the completion of the main production phase of GTEx data. It will aim to congregate a community of scientists from all over the world that are using, or that plan to benefit from using, the GTEx data.
