This document discusses the importance of structured data and standardized nomenclature for analyzing genomic data at scale. It notes that every person's genome contains 3 billion DNA base pairs with around 5 million variants compared to the reference genome. The 100,000 Genomes Project aims to generate genomic and clinical data from 100,000 participants to help find treatments for rare diseases. Key challenges discussed include dealing with large amounts of genomic and associated unstructured clinical data, and the need for automated and standardized approaches using structured data models and established clinical terminologies to enable machine learning and clinical interpretation of the data.
