Get involved in shaping the global ecosystem of responsible genomic data sharing.

GA4GH aims to translate the promise of genomic medicine into routine healthcare. We envision a world where clinicians can predict an individual’s response to a particular drug; where parents can learn of someone halfway around the world with the same genetic condition as their child; and where people can receive treatments for chronic conditions such as asthma or arthritis that are effective and personalised. 

With improvements to technology and the declining cost of genome sequencing, the research and healthcare communities now sequence hundreds of millions of genomes each year. Collectively, this data has the power to reveal new insights into diseases and holds the clues to new and better treatments. To achieve better health outcomes for all people, we need to share genomic and related health data — broadly, globally, and responsibly. 

The foundation to do so lies in shared standards, policy frameworks, and harmonised approaches. This is where GA4GH comes in: we help power global collaborations and collective standards development.

Together, let us accelerate progress in human health and unlock the power of our global health data.
