GA4GH opens call for members of the new Strategic Leadership Committee

The Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH) has announced the creation of the Strategic Leadership Committee (SLC) — a group that will inform GA4GH strategy on advancing responsible use of genomic and related health data.

Members of this new group will work closely with GA4GH leadership, bringing a broader set of perspectives informed by past experience with GA4GH and other genomics and health programs.

Individuals who have a commitment to or experience working with GA4GH are invited to apply or nominate a colleague. The application is open for submissions now through 30 April 2024.

“The SLC will play a crucial role in helping GA4GH progress towards its goals. By bringing together a new cohort of leaders dedicated to moving GA4GH forward, we aim to explore new ideas and bring a wealth of perspectives to the table, building off a robust and successful foundation.”

- Heidi Rehm, Chair of GA4GH
