The Vietnam Human Genome Network has been built on the basis of voluntary and consensus participation of mainly domestic human genome research institutions, which can be expanded to international research groups. Our works include contributing and sharing existing databases (WGS, WES…) including bioinformatic analysis results and building/maintaining VGN data portal; development of research studies based on existing and new data in the future; and successful cooperation and development of scientific and applied products.

VGN project targets to build a dataset of 1000 gDNA, 1000 whole genome and 1000 mtDNA databases, 500 whole exome sequences, and 1000 SNP chip genotyping. The database sources are expected to be shared by 10 research groups, including GeneStory, Institute of Genome Research, Institute of Biotechnology, Dinh Tien Hoang Institute of Medicine, School of Medicine – Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi Medical University, Vietnam National Children’s Hospital, 108 Military Central Hospital.
