Mission
The mission of the Genomics and Translational Bioinformatics Working Group (Gen-TBI, formerly the Genomics Working Group) is to facilitate communication, collaboration, training, and networking for researchers working at the interfaces between bio-molecular and clinical data in order to advance the clinical use of genomics data through TBI, thereby furthering the practice of precision medicine.
Charter
The Genomics and Translational Bioinformatics Working Group focuses on opportunities in biomedical informatics that arise from the storage, retrieval, analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of molecular information in transnational research and in the clinical setting.
Gen-TBI areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Improving interoperability between clinical and molecular databases
- Enhancing electronic medical record systems to support molecular information
- Developing clinical decision support tools that utilize molecular information
- Modeling and visualizing the molecular basis of disease and disease risk
- Evaluating existing standards, identifying gaps, and making recommendations
- Personalized and precision medicine
- Disease reclassification based on underlying molecular mechanisms
- Supporting drug development and discovery
- Molecular diagnostics and prognostics
- Developing methods utilizing omics and clinical data for discovery
