Sanger’s Representative Research Strategy
With the growing need to address biases and inequities in genomics, the Wellcome Sanger Institute launched a Representative Research strategy that outlines a 10-year vision for Sanger science to be designed and conducted in an equitable and more representative way whilst delivering research outputs that benefit our planet and societies around the world.
The strategy focuses on the following four areas that we believe have the greatest impact on equity, representation and diversity in Sanger science:
i. Integrate representative research into internal strategies and strategic plans.
ii. Integrate representative research into Sanger culture.
iii. Learn from and engage with external organisations and initiatives.
i. Incentivise the utilisation of representative cohorts.
ii. Support Sanger researchers to improve the representativeness of their research.
i. Build, pilot and utilise tools that enhance representation in research.
ii. Support Sanger scientists with representative research study design.
i. Support equitable access to our research outputs.
ii. Improve equitable benefit from Sanger science to the global community.
