What is the Emirati Genome Programme?
The Emirati Genome Programme is a national project which aims to use genomic data to improve the health of the Emirati population. The project involves scientific study and research aimed at profiling and determining the gene sequencing among UAE Nationals to aid in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases.
The programme invites Emirati citizens to voluntarily take part in the study by visiting one of the sample collection sites and providing a single blood sample. The programme will then use advanced sequencing technology and artificial intelligence to generate and analyse a comprehensive genome data and produce a reference genome specific to UAE citizens.
Expected results
Successful outcome of the programme will equip healthcare practitioners with quality information that will enable them to provide advanced diagnosis, treatment options and a personalised and preventive programmes tailored to an individual’s unique genetic makeup. It will also help to predict and prevent present and future genetic diseases better and implement new therapies for rare and chronic diseases.
The UAE will use the genomic data to develop healthcare strategies that address the population’s specific needs now and in the future and support the advancement of preventive medicine in the country.

M42 has achieved the Global Healthcare Accreditation (GHA) certification for Excellence in Medical Travel Patient Experience from the US for its pioneering approach. With an overall score of 91 per cent, this certification reaffirms M42's commitment to delivering exceptional care and support to international patients throughout their journey.
M42 is renowned for upholding high ethical standards and dedication to delivering culturally sensitive and compassionate care to people from all cultures. The International Patient Services (IPS) department at M42 provides personalised support through assigned ambassadors who assist international patients and their companions, ensuring a seamless journey from their first initial contact to their departure. The M42 IPS team prioritises strict adherence to critical patient access points to ensure that its medical travel services not only meet but exceed the expectations of international patients.
Since its inception, M42 has attracted patients from countries across the globe, including the UK, the US, Kuwait, India and Saudi Arabia. M42 leads the way in advanced medical procedures with state-of-the-art facilities such as Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi , Healthpoint , Moorfields and Imperial College London Diabetes Centre, among others. From robotic orthopedics to bariatric surgery, transplants, cardiac interventions, and IVF, M42 sets the standard for premier medical care globally. M42 now joins the elite ranks of globally recognised healthcare providers by securing the GHA Medical Travel Patient Experience Certification, marking a significant milestone in advancing the region's medical tourism sector.
GHA is dedicated to enhancing healthcare quality and safety in the medical tourism industry. Through services such as accreditation, certification, strategy, medical travel program development and optimization, and other business solutions to help scale growth, GHA helps position healthcare providers to attract and serve medical travel patients, ultimately enhancing clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction, and the organisation's business performance.
Hasan Jasem Al Nowais, Managing Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of M42, said: "M42 uniquely combines traditional health-tech and healthcare provision to address health holistically, not just healthcare. We proudly continue this approach across our world-class global network. Receiving the first Global Healthcare Accreditation certification in the region reaffirms our commitment to the wellbeing and safety of those we serve. Our priority is people, not just patients and this accreditation acknowledges not just our dedication to the people in our care, but also strengthens the UAE's position as a premier destination for medical tourism."
The UAE has become a hub for medical tourism and is a rapidly growing industry. According to recent statistics, the medical tourism market is expected to grow substantially. By 2027, the UAE’s medical tourism market is projected to reach US$273.72 billion, showing a significant increase from US$104.68 billion in 2019. In terms of the number of international medical tourists, the UAE welcomed around half a million medical tourists, with visitors from Asia comprising the largest group at 37 per cent, followed by the wider Gulf region at 31 per cent and Europe at 15 per cent.
Renée-Marie Stephano, GHA’s Chief Executive Officer, said: "We extend our heartfelt congratulations to M42 International Patient Services for achieving GHA Certification for Excellence in Medical Travel Patient Experience – the first organisation in the Middle East to achieve recognition under this programme. The Certification offers organisations a unique opportunity to delve deeply into their global/international patient service practices, effecting positive change in quality, safety and overall patient experience. GHA certification also serves as a powerful tool for increasing visibility to patients and other international payers. By prioritising operational excellence and patient-centred care, GHA's Certification plays a pivotal role in building patient trust. We commend M42 International Patient Services for its unwavering commitment to service excellence and steadfast support for the unique needs of medical travel patients."
The GHA scrutinises over 34 standards of medical travel quality, with a special emphasis on 11 critical standards, encompassing the entire patient journey from pre-arrival activities like the patient intake process and coordinating travel arrangements all the way to discharge and post-treatment follow-up. This rigorous GHA survey process also involved evidence of compliance documents, onsite surveys, end-to-end patient tracers and interviews with discharged patients.

International Conference on Advancements in Autism Research concludes in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi [ UAE ], April 30 (ANI/WAM): The International Conference on Advancements in Autism Research , themed "Challenges and Solutions," called upon experts, scientists, specialists, practitioners, parents, and early coordination between universities and relevant scientific centres and stressed the importance of enhancing scientific research related to biomarkers for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) at the highest international level to achieve accreditation for research results.
Additionally, it highlighted the importance of academic communication among all relevant faculties to document and exchange experiences and information on the latest research developments related to autism spectrum disorder.
After the conference, participants, including experts and specialists in behavioural modification, biomedical sciences, and related fields, along with representatives from more than 20 countries worldwide, extended their deepest gratitude to Sheikh Khalid bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Zayed Higher Organisation for People of Determination (ZHO), for sponsoring the conference for the second consecutive year.
They praised the care and rehabilitation provided to people of determination in the UAE and the programmes offered by the ZHO for these groups through its centres in Abu Dhabi .
The conference, in its twelfth edition, was held under the generous patronage of Sheikh Khalid, organised by the ZHO in collaboration and coordination with ADNOC, Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (SEHA), and Lotus Holistic Abu Dhabi at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) in Abu Dhabi .
Abdullah Abdulali Al-Hamidan, the Secretary-General of ZHO, noted that the conference was distinguished by its outcomes and recommendations, which will be implemented in the next phase through the participation of stakeholders who will develop an action plan for their execution.
Speaking on behalf of Al-Hamidan at the closing session, Nafea Al-Hammadi, Executive Director of the Support Services Sector at the ZHO, highlighted the intensive efforts made during the conference days to present and discuss the latest developments in autism research.
This included about 20 sessions, 41 specialised workshops, 91 lectures, and several dialogues with parents and decision-makers, involving over 100 speakers from more than 20 countries specialising in behavioural modification, biomedical sciences, and related fields.
He emphasised that these efforts will greatly enhance awareness and knowledge among all attendees and participants, undoubtedly contributing to improving the level of services provided to individuals with autism spectrum disorder, their families, and caregivers.
The conference called for a survey to enumerate cases of autism at the national level, disclosing multiple cases for utilisation in studies and research. It advocated for the increased use of artificial intelligence in educating children with autism as a means of diagnosis and education.
Moreover, it urged for intensified awareness programmes for all segments of society, identifying early warning signs for newborns to acquaint them with early symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
The conference emphasised the necessity of working to protect children with autism and guiding students on how to interact with this group.
It advocated for activating educational institutions to care for integrating children with autism into mainstream schools, providing supportive personnel for educational integration, especially the accompanying teachers, and encouraging educational programmes across various disciplines to work with autistic children.
Furthermore, the conference called for health units to apply preliminary survey forms to identify the most severe cases of autism spectrum disorder and refer them for diagnosis and early intervention services.
It advocated for the formation of representative research groups comprising various specialists willing to collaborate from different countries in the field of autism research and forming teams with integrated specialities. (ANI/WAM)
The conference also recommended the establishment of a laboratory for conducting medical analyses based on scientifically endorsed and published biological indicators in high-impact scientific journals. It stressed the importance of a balanced healthy diet during pregnancy and early years and avoiding caesarean section except in necessary cases.
Participants in the conference called for providing suitable employment opportunities for autistic students to demonstrate their competence according to labour market requirements, promoting talents and hobbies, and showcasing the works of outstanding individuals in various scientific, educational, sports, and artistic fields.
Additionally, they advocated for conducting workshops and lectures for professionals in the autism field on parents' mental health and positive interaction with children, empowering understanding of their needs.
Heba Hegres, the Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities at the United Nations, expressed her sincere thanks and appreciation to the UAE . She thanked the ZHO for sponsoring, sustaining, and organising the very important conference. She congratulated the organisation on the decision to prepare and publish the first peer-reviewed and specialised scientific journal on autism, adhering to global scientific and academic standards.
In a press statement, she emphasised the importance of the conference topics regarding the crucial and central role of the family in the lives of individuals with autism and people with disabilities in general, to provide them with support and advocacy without disrupting their independent living. In this context, she expressed her strong belief in this role and her determination to conduct an independent study on this topic. (ANI/WAM)

Abu Dhabi launches grant programme to promote research and innovation in healthcare
Funding will support clinical research projects that have the potential to fight rare diseases, cancer, alzheimer's and other ailments.
The Department of Health has teamed up with the emirate's healthcare sector, government and non-government entities in the UAE to offer a grant that will support clinical research. AFP
Abu Dhabi has launched a new programme of funding aimed at supporting research and innovation to fight life-threatening diseases.
The emirate's Department of Health said the grant will be offered to those who carry out clinical research projects in the areas of cardio-metabolic and vascular disorders, cancer , Alzheimer's disease , rare diseases, emerging infectious disease and antimicrobial resistance .
It is also open to people who have innovative technological ideas and solutions focusing on smart hospitals and the prevention and management of chronic diseases, a news release said.
The winners will also receive guidance to ensure project continuity and sustainability.
Applicants can submit their entries on www.doh.gov.ae but they should partner with a healthcare facility in Abu Dhabi to finalise and submit their entries.
Applications will be accepted during the next six weeks but the grant amount has not been revealed.
A committee of experts from the Department of Health - Abu Dhabi (DoH) and Abu Dhabi Health Research & Technology Committee will evaluate and assess submissions. It will be headed by Dr Asma Al Mannaei, executive director of the research and innovation centre at the DoH.
"As part of the DoH’s efforts to [support] the capital’s position as a leading destination for life sciences and innovation, we are committed to enabling and empowering innovators and researchers within our community to take their passion projects to the next stage," she said.
"With Abu Dhabi providing the right environment for individuals and companies to thrive, we are thrilled to put forward this grant that will expand clinical research capabilities in the emirate as well as conceptualise unique projects in the capital.
“We look forward to receiving and reading through all entries as well as providing guidance to all applicants. This is an exciting milestone for the healthcare sector that will spread a fine share of healthy competition among science and technology fanatics.”
To offer the grant, DoH has partnered with the emirate's healthcare sector, government and non-government entities in the UAE.
Abu Dhabi aims to become a destination of choice for clinical trials and collaborative healthcare research.
The emirate has ambitions to capture the world's first population-wide genetic library, pioneer connected health and build on previous collaborations with pharmaceutical giants Pfizer and AstraZeneca in medical research.
Last year, G42 Healthcare launched Insights Research Organisation and Solutions, a first-of-its-kind contract research organisation in the UAE to support internationally leading standards of scientific and ethical research, conduct clinical trials and report and develop treatments.
The company was started following the success of the country’s Phase III clinical trials for the development and testing of a Covid-19 vaccine, where 130 nationalities participated.
In March, the capital partnered with Pfizer to train and support 150 Abu Dhabi scientists to conduct clinical research at the level required by multinational companies to produce effective medicines.
