From the western hemisphere to the east 🌐 ... HPRC brings together institutions from across the globe.

Though separated by distance, we’re united by one common goal - building a pangenome reference that captures the full scope of human genomic variation.

This upcoming #WorldEnvironmentDay, we’re reflecting on how HPRC’s work contributes to a more sustainable future.

By deepening our understanding of human genetic variation, we’re supporting better outcomes and helping move toward more efficient, targeted healthcare.🌱🌍

A single genomic reference can't capture the full spectrum of genetic variation.

By building a pangenome that reflects real genetic variation, HPRC is reducing biases and paving the way for more accurate research in health and medicine.

Another key role of HPRC is sequencing diverse samples using the newest long-read technologies.

Our goal is to capture the full spectrum of human genetic diversity and advance research by utilizing innovative resources powered by the magnificent minds at HPRC. 🧠
