The publications on this page demonstrate the growing scientific and policy impact of the Public Health Alliance for Genomic Epidemiology (PHA4GE). Each item represents independent work that has cited PHA4GE tools, standards, data models, or guidance, reflecting their adoption by researchers, public health laboratories, and partners around the world.
In Buenos Aires, researcher Dr Barbara Ghiglione has applied the PHA4GE Wastewater Contextual Data Specification to an antimicrobial resistance surveillance project, showing how shared standards can strengthen research, shape data collection and connect local work with a global community.
At GMI16, researchers and public health experts turned their attention to the less glamorous but increasingly urgent questions around genomic surveillance: how data is shared, how systems connect, and how trust is built.
September saw continued progress across PHA4GE’s Working Groups, with updates spanning data standards, AI, infrastructure, wastewater surveillance, repositories and workforce development.
