Genomic Medicine VI

Global Leaders in Genomic Medicine

On January 8-9, 2014, the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), sponsored its sixth Genomic Medicine Centers meeting - Genomic Medicine Centers Meeting VI: Global Leaders in Genomic Medicine - at the National Academy of Sciences Building in Washington, D.C. Geoffrey Ginsburg, M.D., Ph.D., Duke University, and Teri Manolio, M.D., Ph.D., NHGRI, co-chaired the meeting.

The goals of the meeting were to:

Identify areas of active translational and implementation research, potential common strategies, and opportunities for collaborative efforts.
Identify common barriers to implementation of genomics in healthcare and a policy agenda relevant to advances in the field.
Identify nations with unique capabilities (such as national healthcare systems) that may allow rapid implementation and measures of key outcomes.
Discuss opportunities (such as national healthcare system) that may allow rapid implementation and measures of key outcomes
