The Joint ADSA/Interbull Breeding and Genetics Symposia titled “Ten Years of Genomic Selection” and “Data Pipelines for Implementation of Genomic Evaluation of Novel Traits” were held at the 2019 ADSA Annual Meeting, from June 23 to 26, in Cincinnati, Ohio. The objective of the first symposium was to provide a broad overview of 10 years of genomic selection in dairy cattle. In 2009, genomic evaluations were first implemented in the United States and Canada, followed over time by evaluations in many other countries. The rapid uptake of genomic selection has had a dramatic effect on the dairy industry. This symposium highlighted the development and impact of this implementation in all dairy breeds and outlined new developments and future scenarios. The objective of the second symposium was to provide an international view of recent worldwide advances on the development of new data pipelines, with the overall objective of implementing genetic evaluations for novel traits in the era of genomics. The advent of genomics has created an opportunity to focus on and select for expensive traits, which was not feasible with traditional selection. This symposium provided various examples of national and international initiatives to pool data across countries or organizations to exploit the potential of accurate genomic evaluation for novel and expensive traits
