Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Evaluation of Genomic Applications in Practice and Prevention (EGAPP) is an initiative developed to establish a coordinated evidence-based process for evaluating genetic tests and translating genomic applications that are in transition from research to both clinical and public health applications. The Human Genome Project is a research project that sequenced and mapped the human genome. The Accountability of Clinical and Public Health Applications and the Dietitians in Integrative and Functional Medicine are not initiatives related to genomic applications. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) is a law related to health insurance and medical privacy, but not specifically related to genomic applications.
