10. How do we translate to opportunities for public health?

11. • Will be interested in genomic aspects of their health
• And may bring their own data to the clinic
Accommodate for the patient of the future

12. • Does it require a whole country to take initiative?
• E.g. Genomics England - Creating a genomic medicine service
for the NHS – focus on cancer and rare disease
• More than £300M investment for the first three years
When will public health genomics become reality?

13. • Where will we first see the next population-wide initiatives?
Who will see the first benefits of genomic medicine?
