20 years ago, our 500,000 volunteers selflessly donated their biological samples & health data to us.

Soon we can apply to add their coded, de-identified GP data to our database so researchers can study the full spectrum of disease

Elated. The ability to link coded GP records with omics data in secure TREs from consented @uk_biobank participants is a huge game changer for #pharmacogenomics #PGx

Thank you @wesstreeting and countless others for unlocking the full potential of this precious national resource

@HillLabSask Amazing. 😍 A kind request to code share?

[Christopher T. Rentsch @DarthCTR]

@NHGRI_Director Exciting. Would these cover novel applications of ML/AI to improve prediction of how genomic variants contribute to prescription medication response? Or is this squarely on disease phenotypes? Thank you.
