The LSG co-lead will contribute to the leadership and direction of LSG efforts, in line with GA4GH’s wider direction and goals, as set at the organisational level. This involves developing the LSG strategy based on emerging technologies and genomics methods, identifying requirements for standards that can be taken forward by the group, chairing calls, working through technical issues as a group and most importantly listening and building consensus.
GA4GH is committed to developing the standards necessary to enable the potential benefits of genomics in health to be made a reality, and to supporting the global data sharing and interoperability that this requires. With a global volunteer community made up of hundreds of individuals from a variety of organisations and institutions, GA4GH provides an active environment in which to drive these aims forward while building on our foundational commitments to human rights, ethics and security.
