About the Initiative
The PPMH Education Initiative fulfills one of the core PPMH missions, which is to provide education to a broad range of stakeholders regarding the fundamentals of precision medicine and the impact it will have in patient care. Within the ºÚÁÏÍø Community, this includes a seminar series on research leveraging data contained in the electronic health care record system and a quarterly mini-symposia series on research at ºÚÁÏÍø related to precision health care. The Education initiative also sponsors ºÚÁÏÍø Educational Pathways to Increase Diversity in GEnomics (EDGE Genomics), a training program for undergraduate students from underrepresented and disadvantaged backgrounds.
Outside the ºÚÁÏÍø community, the Education initiative works closely with the PPMH PARADIGM initiative and  to conduct outreach at community events such as the . Our presence at these events strengthens the relationship between PPMH and the broader community.
