Mohammed Bin Rashid University of Medicine and Health Sciences, in collaboration with the University of Birmingham Dubai, has published a paper in Nature Medicine discussing the value of the Arab Pangenome Reference (APR). This first-of-its-kind genomic resource captures the genetic diversity of 2.5 billion people across the Middle East and South Asia, a major contribution to advancing precision medicine and improving healthcare outcomes.

During my visit to @MBRUniversity today, I reviewed the outcomes of the University’s educational, research and medical initiatives, including its exceptional organ transplant programme. The achievements of the Dubai Academic Health Corporation and its partners reflect Dubai’s commitment to building one of the world’s best healthcare ecosystems. The Corporation’s efforts to contribute to the enhancement of human health globally through productive partnerships have led to the publication of 1,000 research papers. We thank the teams of @MBRUniversity and the Corporation for their commitment to realising @HHShkMohd’s vision for the development of Dubai’s healthcare sector
