What a great panel on the One World Genomics Initiatives with @AndreaRamirezMD, @robannan and @drHamdiMbarek! Was great to hear about exciting efforts for world-wide data sharing #FOGBoston
Starting the day with @robannan panel at the #FOGBoston🧬🧬🧬
Great discussion about the implementation of large scale #genomic initiatives in Canada, the US and Qatar.
This year at the 17th World Congress of Bioethics, we led enriching discussions on “Bioethics around Large Scale Genome Programs: Cultural, Ethical” and “Navigating the Interplay of Genomics and Ethics”.

The Festival of Genomics & Biodata is a place of connection and learning and this is really embodied by our keynote panel on One World Genomics. It will be a huge learning opportunity for those in the audience, and those on the panel too! Learn more here: hubs.la/Q02zSrct0
QPGx-CARES integrates evidence-based PGx findings, particularly for cardiovascular medications like #clopidogrel, #warfarin, and #statins. These efforts are backed by robust scientific evidence 4/6 (our earlier work on the landscape of PGx pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3516…
QGPx-CARES emphasizes collaboration among healthcare institutions, researchers, and government entities to standardize PGx testing and create a comprehensive PGx database tailored to the Qatari population 5/6
In 2022, @QatarGenome launched several projects to evaluate PGx testing in various clinical settings. These projects aim to gather insights, address challenges, and evaluate the clinical utility of PGx testing 3/6
QPGx-CARES initiative by @QatarGenome@_QPHI@QF aims to establish a roadmap for optimizing #PGx research and clinical implementation on a national scale 2/6
لماذا نتحدّث كثيرًا عن الجينات والرعاية الصحية الدقيقة؟ 🧬🩺
وما أهمية هذا المجال بالنسبة لنا؟ وكيف ستُسهم انطلاقة معهد قطر للرعاية الصحية الدقيقة (@_QPHI) في تقدّم الرعاية الصحية في قطر والمنطقة؟
لنشاهد معًا الحلقة السادسة من #الصحة_بدقة للتعرّف على كل ذلك وأكثر.
تحدثت الدكتورة وضحى المفتاح، المديرة المسؤولة لمشروع قطر-جينوم من معهد قطر للرعاية الصحية الدقيقة عن المنشأة الجديدة المتطورة في دولة #قطر والأولى من نوعها في المنطقة، والتي تطبق برنامج الجينوم السكاني لتعزيز الرعاية الصحية الدقيقة.
