Despite the achievements that Asian countries and consortiums have made, they still face formidable challenges in terms of funding, regulation, collaboration, and the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) of genomics in Asia. As we show in the next section, the development of human genomics in Asia faces not only similar issues as do other national and transnational endeavors, such as funding, standardization of data and samples, harmonization of ELSI practices and regulations, and gaining public trust, but also some Asia-specific issues and local concerns in the practice of Asian science and collaboration. Building regional collaborative genomics networks, such as ACC and PASNP 1.0 and 2.0, is the first and vital step toward better science, medicine, and health in Asia.	./cache/cord-316676-4fxvzj01.txt	./txt/cord-316676-4fxvzj01.txt
