The exchange focused on how patients’ perspectives can help improve the clarity and accessibility of processes related to the sharing and use of genomic data.

GHGA welcomes the GWK's decision and the long-term prospects it creates for biomedical research data infrastructures.

The GHGA Metadata Workshop 2026 brought together representatives from all GHGA Data Hubs and partnering sequencing facilities to exchange experiences and align on metadata management and data submission.

GHGA is entering an exciting new chapter with a refreshed Board of Directors, welcoming new members alongside returning leaders to guide the consortium forward.

The TU Dresden Data Hub is now operational, joining Heidelberg, Tübingen, and Berlin in GHGA’s federated network. Its first dataset is now accessible via the GHGA Data Portal.

Strengthening its development into a robust, sustainable data infrastructure, GHGA is set to expand services, grow its community, and secure long-term integration within the German research system.

The Berlin Data Hub, jointly run by the MDC and the BIH at Charité, is operational after completing its first data submission. GHGA datasets are now hosted across three locations in Germany, all accessible via the GHGA Data Portal.

We are pleased to announce that the Joint Science Conference (GWK) has decided to continue funding GHGA, along with all nine consortia from the first NFDI funding round.

We are excited to announce that GHGA is now officially listed as a recognised data repository on re3data and FAIRsharing. An entry at DataCite is to follow soon.

Recommended by the NFDI Expert Committee for continued support and backed by the new coalition's commitment to permanent NFDI development, GHGA is set to advance a secure, FAIR human genomic data infrastructure.

GHGA defended its proposal for the next funding phase to an international review panel, outlining plans for operating and developing a sustainable omics database and secure processing environment for data sharing.

The Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) has now joined the GHGA Consortium as a new Co-applicant Institution. Together with MDC and Charité, the BIH will develop a GHGA Data Hub in Berlin.
