About the Roundtable The Roundtable on Genomics and Precision Health brings together leaders from government, academia, industry, foundations, associations, patient communities, and other stakeholder groups to meet and discuss global issues surrounding the translation of genomics and genetics research findings into medicine, public health, education, and policy. The primary purpose of the Roundtable is to foster dialogue across sectors and among interested parties and institutions and to illuminate and scrutinize critical scientific and policy issues where Roundtable engagement and input will help further the field. The Roundtable membership identifies scientific and policy issues where discussion and collaboration will help enable the translation of genomics into health care applications. Specific issues and agenda topics are determined by the Roundtable members and span a broad range of areas relevant to the translation process. Current areas of emphasis include the development of precision therapeutics; clinical implementation of genomic medicine; health care disparities; health information technology and digital health; public health genomics; the use of genomic information for health care decision making; using genomic information and data science to generate knowledge for clinical practice and research; and education and ethical, legal, and social issues. To achieve its objectives, the Roundtable conducts structured discussions, public workshops, and meetings; enters into information-gathering activities; develops authored viewpoints and perspectives; organizes and supports collaboratives; and publishes workshop proceedings. nationalacademies.org/GenomicsRT 2017 Annual Report | 1

Working Groups & Areas of Interest The Roundtable identifies interest areas that need highlighting and attention based on member areas of expertise and the evolution of the field of genomics and precision health. These groups are fluid in that they adapt to address challenges and areas of focus over time. The working groups for 2017-18 include: The cost of developing new therapies has been on the rise, leading many pharmaceutical companies to examine innovative strategies to revitalize and create efficiencies in their drug discovery and development processes, including the adoption of genetically guided strategies to reduce attrition rates and increase the odds of success. This group is Precision interested in enabling precision medicine by identifying which patients should be treated Therapeutics with a particular medicine. Group members are exploring methods for recruiting patients to clinical trials based on genetics, identifying biomarkers for responders, and developing new resources that can enable genetics-based clinical trials. This group is also assessing innovative collaborative models in practice to leverage cross-sector contributions to accelerate drug discovery and development. With technological advances in gene sequencing driving down costs and a growing demonstration of utility for large-scale sequencing in disease diagnosis or to identify and monitor treatments for patients, an opportunity for more widespread use in health Implementation care systems and the public health system has arisen. This group is exploring the use and Public of genomic screening programs across health care systems and the opportunities for generating, collecting, and sharing data and evidence on a large scale; the return on Health Systems investment and value that these programs can bring to a system; and the challenges that exist for reaching a diverse and representative population when the goal is to have genetic testing available to all. This group is exploring the intersection between digital health technologies and genomic data by determining how the two fields can interface to enable precision health, improve research (patient-reported outcomes, continuous phenotypes), and clinical care (monitoring, feedback, adherence). Group members are interested in applying what has been learned from the consumer genomics space (e.g., about consumer access, consumer comprehension, regulatory jurisdiction, health care provider readiness, clinical utility, personal utility, potential burden on the health system, and quality standards) to the Digital Health developing field of digital health for more widespread applications for precision medicine and Genomics and to enable large-scale genetic/genomic testing initiatives. Other areas that may be explored by the group include the role of digital health platforms as a possible mechanism to link disparate data sources and information that is not currently in the electronic health record (EHR) as well as ensuring that integration with the EHR can be achieved for both research and clinical care. Overall, the group seeks to convene experts from the fields of genomics and digital health to illuminate areas of synergy and to inform each other about successes and challenges encountered in each sector. The Overview group examines cross-cutting issues for all Roundtable members and working groups and responds to emerging issues within the genetics and genomics field. Currently, this group is focusing its efforts on precision medicine and precision health. Overview 2 | Roundtable on Genomics and Precision Health

Roundtable Staff Sarah H. Beachy, Ph.D. Meredith Hackmann Senior Program Officer and Roundtable Research Associate Director Rebecca Ray Siobhan Addie, Ph.D. Senior Program Assistant Program Officer Board on Health Sciences Policy Staff Andrew Pope, Ph.D., Senior Board Director Hilary Bragg, Program Coordinator (until August 2017) ABOUT THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES The National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, and National Academy of Medicine work together as the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (“the Academies”) to provide independent, objective analysis and advice to the nation and conduct other activities to solve complex problems and inform public policy decisions. The Academies also encourage education and research, recognize outstanding contributions to knowledge, and increase public understanding in matters of science, engineering, and medicine. The Health and Medicine Division (HMD), formerly known as the program unit of the Institute of Medicine, is a division of the Academies. HMD’s aim is to help those in government and the private sector make informed health decisions by providing evidence upon which they can rely. Each year, more than 3,000 individuals volunteer their time, knowledge, and expertise to advance the nation’s health through the work of HMD. Many of the studies that HMD undertakes are requested by federal agencies and independent organizations; others begin as specific mandates from Congress. While our expert, consensus committees are vital to our advisory role, HMD also convenes a series of forums, roundtables, and standing committees, as well as other activities, to facilitate discussion; discovery; and critical, cross- disciplinary thinking. 2017 Annual Report | 9
