ABOUT MUIN J. KHOURY
Between 1998 and 2024, I served as director of the Office of Public Health Genomics at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The Office was formed in 1998 to address the public health implications of the Human Genome Project. In my 40-year career in public health, I have led and participated in national and international initiatives to help translate advances in genomics and other technologies into effective and ethical interventions that can improve population health and reduce health inequities. I am passionate about identifying evidence-based genomic testing, family health history, and other -omic applications that can save lives and prevent disease, informing and educating public health, healthcare providers and the general public, and integrating evidence-based applications into clinical practice and public health programs. I have published more than 600 peer reviewed scientific articles and four books in the fields of genetic epidemiology, public health genomics and precision public health.
