The 22nd Summer Institute in Statistical Genetics (SISG 2017) will be held at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington during July 10-28, 2017. The Institute consists of a series of two-and-a-half day workshops designed to introduce geneticists to modern methods of statistical analysis and to introduce statisticians to the statistical challenges posed by modern genetic data. Prerequisites are minimal, and the modular nature of the Institute enables participants to design a program best suited to their backgrounds and interests. Most participants take two or three modules.

Individuals attending the Institute will receive certificates of course completion in recognition of their participation.
