We are building a secure national omics data infrastructure, enabling the use of human genome data for research purposes while preventing data misuse.
Omics data have the potential to revolutionise health care. Here we show how GHGA is an integral part of this process.
GHGA has developed a robust and appropriate legal and data protection structure.
Dive with us into the world of data-driven medicine and its ethical, legal and social implications.
GHGA welcomes the new WHO policy for Genome Data Access, Use and Sharing and follows the call for comments in this community effort.

Learn moreGHGA is tightly embedded and connected to national and international infrastructures and initiatives. It will be operated as a German national node of the federated European Genome-Phenome Archive (EGA).
GHGA is funded as part of the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI e.V.) via the DFG.
With 46 Participants from 21 institutions, GHGA is organised in data hubs across Germany combining leading institutions in genomic medicine, major omics data producers (including four DFG Sequencing Centers) and HPC centers committed to provide scalable infrastructure.
To ensure smooth working, eight workstreams were formed.
