KU Center for Genomics Symposium

Hourly parking in the Mississippi Street Garage is a convenient option for those without a KU parking pass. The Allen Fieldhouse and Central District Garages are located near bus stops with routes that stop near the Kansas Memorial Union, which is next to the Jayhawk Welcome Center.

If possible, try to avoid taking Iowa Street to campus during rush hours, as there is major construction. 

Visit the KU Parking website to see other parking options. 

• Please bring your ID if you want to have alcohol during happy hour.
• Dinner is not provided at the event.
• Allergy information for all food will be provided on the food cards.

Dress code is whatever you are comfortable in. Many people opt for business casual (e.g., slacks, dresses, blouses, tailored shirts, etc.). 

Our networking event will take place during lunch. 

• The presentation spots are open to anyone doing genomics/genetics research. 
• Postdocs, graduate students, undergraduate researchers, technicians, and other research staff are especially encouraged to submit abstracts.
