2025 EMGS Annual Meeting Recap

We had a wonderful time at the 56th Annual Meeting of the EMGS, held September 6–10, 2025, at the Hyatt Regency Rochester in beautiful Rochester, New York! This year’s meeting featured an exciting mix of symposia, platform sessions, award lectures, and poster presentations, bringing together scientists from around the world to share discoveries and spark new collaborations.

In addition to the scientific program, attendees enjoyed interactive networking sessions in the EMGS Lounge, lively poster sessions, and unique opportunities to experience the local flavor of Rochester, including wine and brewery tastings, the ever-popular Ice Cream Sundae Bar, and an unforgettable offsite networking event at Radio Social!

We’re so grateful to everyone who helped make the 2025 EMGS Annual Meeting such a success!
