Projects currently underway around the world are collecting detailed health and genomic data from millions of volunteers. In parallel, numerous healthcare systems have announced commitments to integrate genomic data into the standard of care for select patients. These data have the potential to reveal transformative insights into health and disease. However, to realize this promise, novel approaches are required across the full life cycle of data analysis. This symposium will include discussion of advanced statistical and algorithmic approaches to draw insights from petabyte scale genomic and health data; success stories to date; and a view towards the future of clinical integration of genomics in the learning health system.
