List of HGSA Orations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The HGSA Oration was established in 1990 in order to honour a pre-eminent member of the Human Genetics Society of Australasia (HGSA). It is a lecture given by a senior member of the HGSA who has contributed significantly to the profession over many years. The oration is given annually at the Annual Scientific Meeting of the HGSA.[1]
