Dear ICGI members and friends:

Greetings and Happy New Year! As a result of the Omicron variant, spike in COVID-19 cases worldwide, and associated travel difficulties, the 2022 ICGI workshop at PAG has been postponed until 2023.

On behalf of your ICGI leadership, I would like to thank you once again for your patience during these challenging times. Although the last two years have been extremely difficult for us to get together, I am optimistic that 2022 will become more 'normal' and we will once again be able to meet again in person to share recent advances in cotton genetics, genomics, and improvement.

Best wishes for success and good health in 2022! Be on the lookout for updates regarding the 2022 ICGI Research conference coming soon.

Regards,

Todd
