The Population Genomic Screening Network is an NIH-funded program to pilot test population-based genomic screening in primary care settings for common, actionable conditions. The Network has the following main goals:
Evaluate primary care-based screening for select genomic conditions with the strongest evidence for screening to prevent disease or reduce its severity
Use established strategies for meaningful community engagement in all phases of design, conduct, and evaluation
Develop effective strategies for connecting patients found to have genomic risk variants to follow-up care
