About Public Health Genetics and Genomics Week

The National Coordinating Center for the Regional Genetics Network (NCC) is proud hosted Public Health Genetics and Genomics Week (PHGW) from 2020-2024! The goal of PHGW is to increase awareness and celebrate the efforts of public health genetics and genomics.

The NCC was funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration from 2004 to May 31, 2024 to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics. With the sunset of the funding, the NCC no longer exists and is unable to continue supporting PHGW.

We hope that others in the field will continue to support and celebrate Public Health Genetics and Genomics Week each third week of May to celebrate the important work of public health genetics and genomics.
