In this episode of Trends from the Trenches, host Stan Gloss speaks with Heidi Rehm, PhD, Chair Elect of the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH), about data sharing policies and standards that can advance both genomics and health. Rehm discusses the benefits of data sharing on a global scale, how organizations can reduce friction of people’s usage and adoption of standards, and successful examples of implementation. She also shares her thoughts on the future of AI, “data citizenship,” and how the COVID-19 pandemic paved a hopeful road of new opportunities for researchers everywhere to work together and share data to help humanity.
