The 4th Virus Genomics and Evolution conference will provide a multidisciplinary forum for researchers interested in the genomics and evolutionary analysis of viruses. This is organized by Wellcome Connecting Science and will take place in 9-11 November 2022 as a hybrid meeting – with onsite or virtual attendance.

The conference will address the fundamental questions of viral evolution, transmission and pathogenesis. It will showcase advances in viral genomics, bioinformatics and sequencing technology, as well as methodologies for large viral dataset analysis. The application of viral genomic studies for patient management and public health will be explored.

Genomics of epidemic and non-epidemic viruses, emerging viral infections and pathogen discovery will be covered, in addition to SARS-CoV-2.
