Health Equity Informative Metrics (HEIM): A Framework for Quantifying Global Biobank Research Equity

2026-01-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Despite representing approximately 85% of the global population, low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) contribute less than 10% of participants to genome-wide association studies and biobank research. This disparity has profound implications for the generalisability of precision medicine. However, no standardised framework exists to quantify research equity at the biobank level or track pro...
