face=Calibri><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Imaging genomics is an emerging
research field, where integrative analysis of imaging and omics data is
performed to provide new insights into the phenotypic characteristics and
genetic mechanisms of normal or disordered biological structures and functions,
and to impact the development of new diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive
approaches. This session aims to encourage discussion on fundamental concepts,
new methods and innovative applications in this young and rapidly evolving
field.</FONT></FONT></P>
