Being the city’s first large-scale genome sequencing project, Hong Kong Genome Project (HKGP) serves as a catalyst to benefit patients and their families with more precise diagnosis and personalised treatment through whole genome sequencing. It also aims to establish a genome database of the local population, testing infrastructure, and talent pool to address the healthcare needs of Hong Kong in the long run.
Join The Project
HKGP focuses mainly on diseases and research cohorts that would benefit from Whole Genome Sequencing, including undiagnosed diseases, hereditary cancers and individuals that may benefit from genomic and precision medicine. The project aims to help participants identify potential disease-causing genetic variants through Whole Genome Sequencing.
