Sam Halabi, Richard Wilder, Lawrence O. Gostin, María Luisa Hurtado
Abstract
Interview with Sam Halabi on facilitating sharing and aggregation of pathogen genomic sequence data for public health objectives. (10:09)Download Despite the importance of information about pathogens’ genomic sequences, there is no global system for sharing such data. Various repositories where data are shared operate on different principles.
