The Ramapo College IGG Center is accepting nominations for the first annual Ramapo College Investigative Genetic Genealogy Award, to be awarded at the Ramapo IGG Conference in June 2024.

The Ramapo College Investigative Genetic Genealogy Award recognizes an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to IGG in the past year. The award construes contributions broadly and can include significant cases solved; development of new techniques in IGG, advances in laboratory testing relevant to IGG, or law enforcement investigatory techniques relevant to IGG; work on policy, ethics, and law related to IGG; and more.

The award is not limited to IGG practitioners—any individual who has made outstanding contributions to IGG is eligible. Please submit your nominations here by March 1, 2024.

Submissions are now closed. Nominees and winners will be notified in April / May 2024.
