LIVE WEBINAR: APRIL 13TH AT 1 P.M. BST | 8 A.M. EST

Building National Biobanks: From Vision to Global Impact.

National Biobanks are transforming population health globally. Enabling genomic discovery at unprecedented scale, accelerating drug development, and reshaping how countries invest in precision medicine.

But how are the world’s leading biobanks actually built? How do you scale platform accessibility to meet data demand? And what infrastructure decisions determine long-term success?

In this flagship global webinar, leaders from four internationally recognized biobank initiatives UK Biobank, Our Future Health, Challenge Works and Mexico City Prospective Study come together for a rare joint discussion on building, scaling, and operationalizing national biobank platforms.

This 60-minute moderated panel will explore:

  • Foundation & Governance: Strategies for the initial setup, funding models, and the legal frameworks required to launch at a national scale.

  • Infrastructure & Scaling: The technical shift toward Cloud-based Research Analysis Platforms (RAPs) to manage the "data deluge" of sequencing and multi-omics.

  • Accessibility: Methods to democratize data, offering "low-code" tools so researchers of all technical levels can safely analyze sensitive datasets.

  • Strategic Lessons: Practical advice for emerging programs on maintaining public trust, data standardization, and long-term financial sustainability.

Whether you are launching a new national initiative, expanding an existing program, working within government or healthcare systems, or exploring large-scale genomics infrastructure partnerships this session provides direct insight from organizations operating at global scale.

This is more than a webinar. It is a global conversation on the future of population-scale research infrastructure.
