About
Dr. Gregory Goh is a leading researcher in the field of population genomics and precision public health, with a particular focus on the early detection of inherited disease risk. His most impactful work centers on demonstrating the feasibility and clinical utility of large-scale genetic screening for actionable conditions. In his landmark 2023 study, "Population screening shows risk of inherited cancer and familial hypercholesterolemia in Oregon," Goh and his team analyzed real-world data to reveal that a significant proportion of the population carries pathogenic variants for hereditary cancer syndromes and familial hypercholesterolemia—conditions that are often undetected through traditional family history-based approaches. This work, which has already garnered 13 citations, provides compelling evidence for shifting from reactive, risk-based testing to proactive, population-wide screening. By highlighting the high prevalence of these actionable genetic risks, Goh’s research is directly informing public health policy and clinical guidelines, paving the way for more equitable and effective prevention strategies. His contributions are instrumental in bridging the gap between genomic discovery and community health impact.
