Advancing public health genomics

Abstract

With the rapid development of theory and practice in Genomics, research on Public Health Genomics, as a new field is beginning to contribute to people's life. A large volume of genomics data is available but not yet readily used in clinical services. A gap exists between genomics research and public healthcare genomics applications. We believe that machine intelligence can play an important role in transferring genomics knowledge to practical use. As a vision of our research, in this paper we present the usefulness of applying machine intelligence to public health genomics.
