Working together to harness the potential of genomics to improve the health, wellbeing and prosperity of the people of Wales.
New genetic and genomic technologies are allowing us to develop a much more detailed understanding of the link between our genes and health.
In recent years there has been international recognition that these technologies have the potential to revolutionise medicine and public health.
Links to research and industry activities are more important than ever, and the wider ecosystem for genomics must be aligned to maximise health and economic benefits for Wales.
The Genomics Partnership Wales, along with its partners and stakeholders, will ensure these plans will be fulfilled in the fields of genetics and genomics, while supporting the delivery of precision medicine in NHS Wales.
