In the past decade, India has seen a remarkable evolution in genomics, poised to revolutionize healthcare. Initiatives like ‘Genome India’ completed sequencing 10,000 genomes in January 2024, aiming to establish a reference genome for Indians and develop genetic diagnostics. ‘IndiGen’ furthered these efforts by sequencing diverse genomes to tackle genetic diseases, including tuberculosis and rare disorders in children. AI and ML are pivotal, aiding in data analysis for personalized treatments and cancer biomarker discovery. These innovations also combat antimicrobial resistance through genomic insights.
