What is GDI?
The Genomic Data Infrastructure (GDI) project:
- is enabling access to genomic and related phenotypic and clinical data across Europe
- by establishing a federated, sustainable and secure infrastructure to access the data
- is building on the outputs of the Beyond 1 Million Genomes (B1MG) project
- is realising the ambition of the 1+Million Genomes (1+MG) initiative
- is bringing together experts in life science, medicine, computer science, ethics, and law
Why GDI?
GDI project aims to:
- enable access to genomic and related phenotypic and clinical data to improve research, policymaking and healthcare across Europe
- unlock a data network of over one million genome sequences for research and clinical reference
- create new opportunities for transnational and multi-stakeholder actions in personalised medicine for cancer, common, rare and infectious diseases as well as access to a reference genome collection representing the European population (Genome of Europe)
