Precision Medicine Initiative in US and Abroad
President Obama has announced a Precision Medicine Initiative in the US earlier this year. A part of that effort is to collect information from a very large cohort of patients. Such efforts have been initiated at many Institutions in the US and around the world. This panel will discuss the successes of these efforts and the challenges they face.

- Reactions of MDs and Patients: False positive requires more tests
- How can we handle getting back wiht results to 1Million Volunteers
- lessons from BioBank that can inform the President Cohort PMI
PARTNERS Experience
- Risk prediction model
- calling back patients with results
