1. We’d like to clarify the situation on the "code of conduct" presented to attendees of the ESSGN conference. This was an early internal draft that was prepared somewhat hastily. In retrospect, asking attendees to sign it was premature and has understandably raised concerns.
The @ESSGNetwork just refused to let me participate in their conference in May because, as a matter of conscience, I refused to sign their ethically & politically contentious statement of principles. I guess freedom of conscience does not exist in social science genetics in 2025.View quoted post on X
