The Janus Lecture is an annual presentation at the NSGC Annual Conference.  Its name refers to the ancient Roman god, Janus, who is said to have been depicted with two faces, one looking to the past and one to the future.  In this spirit, the Janus Lecture features a genetic counselor with expertise in a specific specialty area or disorder, sharing his/her expertise on the past, present and future of the specialty area or disorder.
