ASHG Launches Initiative to Advance Responsible, Effective Use of Artificial Intelligence in Human Genetics and Genomics

The American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) has launched the ASHG Artificial Intelligence (AI) Initiative to promote the responsible use of AI in human genetics and genomics.
The initiative aims to transform research and care by improving diagnosis, advancing personalized treatment strategies, and discovering new therapeutic insights.
Key components of the initiative include an AI Summit, a virtual symposium, and a published report with recommendations for governance, standards, and education.
The initiative seeks to develop an actionable framework for maximizing AI’s potential in enhancing benefits for researchers, clinicians, and patients.
The AI Initiative is spearheaded by a Task Force led by Marylyn Ritchie, PhD, including prominent experts from research, clinical genetics, and industry.
