Charting a course for genomic
medicine from base pairs to bedside Advancing the provision of
healthcare
• Clinical research:
diagnostics, therapeutics
• Evidence base: outcomes
of care; cost
effectiveness; reduction
of health disparities
• Delivery of information to
patients: tools (EHR);
access; healthcare
provider education; public literacy

Healthcare Provider Competencies
Healthcare providers are not adequately trained to support the use of personalized healthcare.
Resources, tools, and education are needed by all healthcare disciplines to be able to assist the public to understand personal health issues involving genomic information.

Genomic information will touch
virtually every person in the
forthcoming generations
Currently there is underuse of
personalized genomic
approaches
Current approaches do not
prepare the public to understand
personal health issues involving
genomics
Inadequate healthcare provider
genomic knowledge
Genomic Literacy Meeting Research Opportunities
For studying genomic health literacy:
ELSI; family history; presentation of
genomic information; new partnerships
Improving K-12 genomic science literacy
Studying the role of media in genomic
literacy of the public
Strategies to effectively engage the public
NHGRI-Smithsonian Genomics Exhibition
• Proximity of NIH and Smithsonian
• 2013: Celebratory Year for Genomics
Origins of NHGRI-Smithsonian Partnership
National Museum of Natural History (NMNH)
• Largest and most visited natural history museum in
the world
• #1 visited museum in the United States
• >7 million visitors to NMNH each year
• >6 million visitors to NMNH web site each year
Genome: Unlocking Life’s Code
“The genome contains the code of instructions for building all organisms. Learning about the human genome will revolutionize your thinking about your biology and health, and human’s place in the natural world.“
• Opening in June 2013
• ~2900 square foot exhibition
• Hall 23 (adjacent to Hope Diamond)
• Resident in Smithsonian NMNH for ~1 year
• Subsequently will tour North America for 4-5 years
• Significant associated programming and outreach

Exhibition Website Overview
On behalf of the NMNH-NHGRI partnership,
NHGRI is guiding the development and
deployment of an educational website.
This website will function as a robust learning
tool for the general public, teachers, and
students.
