Project Description

This interview-based research project will document genomic data custodianship practices across research, clinical and public health settings across Australia. By developing models for governance practices occurring in real-world settings, it will assist in the development of a more trustworthy data governance framework.

LINEAGE (Law, Sociology and Ethics in Data Governance for Genomics) is a national MRFF project aiming to address emerging ethical, legal and social issues in governance of clinical genomic datasets and improve health. This project will help the LINEAGE Consortium and policy-makers ensure that new data governance framework proposals are sensitive to the realitiesof data governance practices, thereby improving genomic research and related health outcomes.
This project is the first to classify organisational practices of data governance, bringing a sociological perspective to scientific and medical policy fields.
