Genomics in Health Implementation Forum, Nov. 16-17
On November 16-17, 2021, initiatives from around the globe will convene for a meeting of the Genomics in Health Implementation Forum. The GHIF aims to support accurate data interpretation, diagnosis and innovative solutions through global cooperation in data sharing and clinical implementation of genomics. The forum helps initiatives reduce duplication of efforts and promote the collection of compatible clinical genomic data and health information to enable data sharing. The primary focus is to support the uptake of Global Alliance for Genomics and Health standards and provide real-world insights to the GA4GH Work Streams as they develop new standards to support data sharing.
Attendees will hear updates from current GHIF efforts and discuss future opportunities to advance global data sharing and human health.
As an organizational member of GA4GH, West Virginia University faculty are invited to participate.
