N2 - The European Society of Human Genetics—Young Committee (ESHG-Y) aims to support young human geneticists by developing strategies and programs for better education and creating a strong network in all European countries. In this report, we present the ESHG-Y projects conducted since its conception. We organized the educational sessions at the ESHG Annual Conference, the European Dysmorphology Meetings, and a virtual session in collaboration with the European Board of Medical Genetics (EBMG). Also, the ESHG-Y regularly promotes relevant activities and succeeded in creating an active network of young geneticists. Our representatives have a supportive role in well-known organizations such as: ESHG Board, ESHG Scientific Program Committee, ESHG Education Committee, EBMG, ERN-Ithaca, Unique - Rare Chromosome Disorder Support group, Orphanet, EuroGEMS, MOOC BIG and more. Taking into consideration all activities and ongoing projects, we can state that the ESHG-Y successfully achieves its objectives and brings young professionals together.
