Edge-First Genomics: Why the Lab of the Future Processes Data Locally

Position paper arguing that genomic data processing must shift from cloud-centralized to edge-first architectures. Examines data sovereignty implications of cross-border genomic transfers under GDPR and the CLOUD Act. Proposes local-first processing pipelines where raw sequencing data never leaves the facility, with only differential privacy-protected aggregates shared for federated research.

Abstract

Position paper arguing that genomic data processing must shift from cloud-centralized to edge-first architectures. Examines data sovereignty implications of cross-border genomic transfers under GDPR and the CLOUD Act. Proposes local-first processing pipelines where raw sequencing data never leaves the facility, with only differential privacy-protected aggregates shared for federated research.
