Participant Testimonials
The two BIRS workshops I've attended have been exceptionally useful. These are some of the best meetings in science. Feedback I received on the work I presented at the last workshop directly led to improvements in a manuscript I posted to bioRxiv a week later. I've presented this work several times but it's only at the BIRS workshop that I got this level of engagement with my research.
Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, University of Toronto
This was the best small-scale statistical genetics meeting that I have ever attended. The atmosphere was extremely conducive to discussion and the scientific presentations were first rate. The set up of the Center from the presentation rooms, to the lounge areas, the food and the amenities all induced interactions between participants and enjoyment of the meeting. I would definitely come back!

It was an amazing workshop and very helpful pushing my research forward! Thank you for the opportunity.
