About OHGE

One Health Genomics Edinburgh (OHGE) is a cross-college, cross-campus and cross-discipline community of genomics researchers at the University of Edinburgh, with over 400 current members. OHGE has evolved from the Genomics@Edinburgh community, to provide a renewed vision for the future of genomics activities at the University.

OHGE is inclusive of ̀all those who are using genome technologies and information, both with wet lab and computational approaches. Our aim is to support, promote and bring together the Edinburgh genomics community across campuses, disciplines and systems, facilitating exchange of knowledge and ideas, and stimulating new collaborations to face pressing global challenges that impact on human, animal, plant and ecosystem health.
