Centers for Genomics and Public Health |
|
The National Office of Public Health Genomics and the Association of Schools of Public Health have funded the University of Michigan, the University of North Carolina, and the University of Washington to establish Centers for Genomics and Public Health (CGPH). The key objectives of these centers are to translate genomic information into useable public health knowledge, provide technical assistance to state and community public health agencies integrating genomics into programs and practice, and develop and provide genomics training for the current and future public health workforce.
In order to sustain development of a network of Centers for Genomics and Public Health, NOPHG is pleased to announce the availability of funds through Program Announcement (PA) 04143, “Centers for Genomics and Public Health.” These Centers will function as regional hubs of expertise in genomics and public health and continue to address the integration of genomics into health practice.

Improving the Quality of Genetic Testing and Assessing Its Appropriate Integration into Clinical and Public Health Practice |
|
|
The purpose of this funding is to identify opportunities for improving the quality of laboratory genetic testing practices in clinical and/or public health settings. The goals of this program are (1) to conduct a technology and practice assessment within the scope of genetic testing laboratory services in the United States that will evaluate elements important for assuring the quality, appropriate use, and to what extent an understanding of benefits and limitations are applied; (2) to conduct a pilot study to test concepts potentially useful for improving the quality of the genetic testing process; and (3) to compare relevant international activities (those occurring outside the United States ) to efforts undertaken in this project.
