Climate change and human genomics
Discover how research is uncovering links between climate change, environmental exposures, and genomics to inform future healthcare and public health strategies.
Precision health in a changing climate
Our position statement sets out the need for integrating genomics into the health response to climate change. We propose that strategic application of genomics can offer valuable insights for responses to climate-related health challenges, complementing and potentially enhancing existing efforts.
