Kirjeldus

In this podcast episode with Dr. Lili Milani , Head of the Estonian Biobank and Professor of Pharmacogenomics at the University of Tartu, we discuss how Estonia’s national biobank has become a trusted platform where science, ethics, and personal agency meet. 

The Estonian Biobank began as a research initiative focused on the genetics of disease, but over time, its purpose has deepened and broadened. 

“The original goal was to understand how genes relate to diseases so we could improve care,” Milani explains. As more participants joined and the scope of available data expanded, the Biobank grew into a national tool for real, tangible benefits to people’s personal lives.
