Did you attend @wcgalp2022 2022? Now available (open access): Proceedings of 12th World Congress on Genetics Applied to Livestock Production (WCGALP) doi.org/10.3920/978-90…
The proceedings of @wcgalp2022 is now available online & open access. Over 3300 pages technical and species orientated innovations in animal breeding, and the contribution that genetics can make to solving societal challenges. doi.org/10.3920/978-90… @wcgalp2026 @WURlivestock
@wcgalp2022 @wcgalp2026 Last few days to fill in the survey. This will greatly help the 2026 organisers. Any do's and don'ts are welcome. So please take a few minutes this week (and ask your colleagues to fill it in as well)
All participants of #WCGALP2022 should have received an email now with the certificate of attendance, a link to a survey (please take a bit of time to provide feedback, also for @wcgalp2026!), and the link to all recordings of all sessions last week, available until end of 2022
That's all folks! What a great week we had. Thanks to the organisers, support staff, sponsors, volunteers, and of course YOU 🫵! We wish you a safe trip home 🏡. Do not forget to stay in touch, and tag us in your tweets about the conference.
Thank you to all participants (online and in person), presenters (on site and online), chairs, volunteers, sponsors, staff of Cbd and of De Doelen for a great week. See you in Madison @wcgalp2026
Tonight, we will end this amazing week with a Farewell Dinner & Party, from 19:30 til 01:00, in the beautiful Laurenskerk. Make sure to bring a good appetite! Share your nicest group pictures and best dance moves and tag us #WCGALP2022
It's out in the open now, the next #WCGALP conference will be held in Madison, Wisconsin, US in July 2026. Please follow @wcgalp2026 to stay up to date with all required info
This is my first tweet 🐣 We welcome @wcgalp2022 participants and those interested in #WCGALP2022 to follow this account @wcgalp2026 where we will discuss all things associated with WCGALP 2026 July 12-17 in Madison, Wisconsin 🇺🇸 youtu.be/ddPD-A39zYM via @YouTube #WCGALP2026
We hope you have energy left after 4 days of #WCGALP2022, because tomorrow we finish the conference in style! 🕴️ Kicking off with a keynote from Loïc Yengo (@LoicYengo, 8:30 in Grote Zaal), and ending the day with the traditional Farewell Dinner. Be there or be Punnett-square🔲!
Don't forget #WCGALP2022 is fully hybrid. That means you will be able to watch all the sessions after the conference. If a room is full, maybe go see your second preference and stay Covid safe.
In July 6, we had a great social event in @RotterdamZoo for #wcgalp2022. Are you curious about what people had to say, please check out our next vlog: vimeo.com/727694840
Tell us what you thought of the excursions! After the dinner & party (and a good night's sleep😴), we will continue the conference tomorrow with a keynote speech of Marion Koopmans (@MarionKoopmans) at 8.30 in Grote Zaal. You certainly do not want to miss this one!
