Economics of Genomics
& Precision Medicine

Connect researchers

• Bring together researchers interested in the application of health economics in the areas of genomics and precision medicine.
• Provide a platform for sharing ideas, experiences, and country-specific insights, research and related issues or challenges.
• Connect with other researchers outside Econ-Omics who could facilitate the advancement of health economics methods in the area of genomic medicine.

Generate ideas through dialogue and academic enquiry

• Discuss issues, challenges and propose solutions related to the allocation of resources in genomics and precision medicine around the world.
• Encourage dialogue and debate on health economics methods and value judgements related to the prioritisation of genomic medicine.
• Present and seek feedback on our ideas from multi-disciplinary audiences.

Enable research collaboration and dissemination

• Discuss ongoing research in the area of genomic medicine around the world, identifying gaps and lessons learned within and between countries.
• Foster collaboration on ongoing and future research through publications and grant applications.
• Broadly disseminate our research, while ensuring our capacity, evidence and methods keep up with the pace of genomics research.

Support research in low and middle income countries (LMICs) and early career researchers (ECRs)

• Strengthen local capacity building and promote interest in the area of Econ-Omics for ECRs and researchers in LMICs.
• Connect ECRs and researchers in LMICs with a large community of researchers who share common interests and collaborate on research projects and ideas.
• Recruit ECRs and researchers in LMICs to leadership positions through Convener roles and engage them in dissemination activities, through invited webinars, facilitating submissions to conference sessions, and event promotion.
