Genomic signal processing (GSP) is an interdisciplinary field that integrates methodologies from digital signal processing with genomics to elucidate the underlying structure of DNA. Central to this ...
Genomics is evolving rapidly, and its potential impact for the future of human health cannot yet be known. Human genomics knowledge and technologies provide new ways to prevent and manage many diseases, and opportunities to achieve global public health goals. Genomic knowledge of other organisms contributes to the understanding of human health and diseases, the interconnectedness across ...
The objectives of this WHO EPI-WIN Webinar are to orient the public health community on the importance of RSV genomic surveillance and the technical and operational considerations for RSV sequencing and bioinformatics, support in strengthening LMICs capacities for RSV genetic sequencing and bioinformatics, to better understand and monitor RSV phylogenetic diversity, and help standardize ...
The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a set of principles for the ethical collection, access, use and sharing of human genomic data. Created with guidance from the WHO Technical Advisory Group on Genomics (TAG-G) and other international experts, these principles establish a global approach to help protect individual rights, promote equity and foster responsible collaboration in ...
Geneva, 2025 – The World Health Organization (WHO) has published a new global analysis of human genomics in clinical research, covering more than three decades of studies registered between 1990 and 2024. The report, Human genomics technologies in clinical studies – the research landscape, together with an accompanying interactive dashboard provides the most comprehensive overview to date ...
The International Pathogen Surveillance Network (IPSN) is a global network of pathogen genomic actors, brought together by the WHO Hub for Pandemic and Epidemic Intelligence, to accelerate progress in pathogen genomics, and improve public health decision-making.
