From 26th-30th January 2009, participants came together for the Second GCP Genotyping Support Services (GSS) Workshop at CIAT Headquarters in Cali, Colombia. The workshop was organised by GCP’s GSS coordinator Humberto Gómez, with assistance from GCP’s Laura Ruíz and CIAT’s Patricia Fajardo. Instructors Fred van Eeuwijk, Marcos Malosetti, and Joost Van Heerwaarden (Wageningen University, The Netherlands), together with Sam Geerts of the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium, were on hand to lend their expertise throughout the 5-day course.

Feedback and workshop materials are currently being collated, and will be posted to the website in due course.
