The Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul is an ideal location for this conference. Minnesota is home to multiple institutions with active research and training programs in statistical genetics. Our central location within the continental US and top-rated MSP Airport means that the Twin Cities are easily, quickly, and relatively cheaply accessible by air. The proposed conference venue, on the University of Minnesota campus, is located only 10 miles from the airport and easily accessible by car or public transit. The surrounding neighborhoods offer affordable accommodations and a variety of attractions, from professional sports and vibrant music scenes to renowned restaurants and outdoor activities such as biking and exploring the Mississippi River.

STATGEN 2025 is seeking additional conference sponsors! If your organization is interested in sponsoring the event, please reach out to statgen2025@umn.edu to discuss options.
