A corpus of GA4GH phenopackets: Case-level phenotyping for genomic diagnostics and discoveryThe Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH) Phenopacket Schema was released in 2022 and approved by ISO as a standard for sharing clinical and genomic information about an individual, including phenotypic descriptions, numerical measurements, genetic information, diagnoses, and treatments. A phenopacket can be used as an input file for software that supports phenotype-driven genomic diagnostics and for algorithms that facilitate patient classification and stratification for identifying new diseases and treatments.

Palliative care for people with substance use disorders: a qualitative study of the experiences of rural primary care providersIn Australia, substance use disorders disproportionately affect people living in rural and remote areas.

This is particularly salient for general practitioners in rural areas, who provide most of the palliative care to their patients.
