Indonesian Human Genomic Mapping

If mastery of genome technology becomes more sophisticated, genome mapping data becomes more complete, disease patterns can be mapped.   The modernization of the national health system continues to move forward. Not long ago the Ministry of Health launched a program to collect data on the genomic population of Indonesia. The program, named Biomedical and Genome Science Initiative (BGSI), aims to collect data on 10,000 genomes and pathogens related to the Indonesian population by 2024 and will continue to increase in the following years. This project involves private partners and a genetic platform providing start-up companies, with the aim of providing precision medical services. If the mastery of genome technology in Indonesia becomes more advanced, genomic mapping data becomes more complete, and disease patterns can be mapped, both nationally and individually.
