NSHG-PM

Mission and Background The Nordic Society of Human Genetics and Precision Medicine (NSHG-PM) was created in order to establish a Nordic framework for research into the genetics of human diseases. Its aims are to: - establish a Nordic framework for research into the genetics of human diseases, as well as into human evolution and population history; - accelerate discovery of disease susceptibility genes and genes protecting from disease through integrated analyses using multiple large-scale datasets and a range of experimental designs; - translate these findings so that they can be used for precision medicine to improve public health; - and uphold and promote the highest legal, regulatory, social, and ethical standards. We will do this by working with pertinent experts and other stakeholders at local, national and regional levels.
