- Improve human health via effective and responsible sharing of medical genomics data;
- Develop guidelines or frameworks for sharing clinical and/or genomic data;
- Establish standards or protocols for secure international transmission, storage, and analysis of genomic data;
- Develop international policy and harmonization guidelines that assure the privacy and confidentiality of clinical or clinical genomic data.
