Gujarat Launches State-Level Sports Genomics Programme Ahead of 2030 Commonwealth Games
Gujarat has launched India's first state-level Sports Genomics Programme to enhance athlete identification and development ahead of the 2030 Commonwealth Games. Led by Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel and implemented by the Gujarat Biotechnology Research Centre, the initiative combines genomics with sports science, physiology, and nutrition. This year, 2,000 athlete DNA samples will be collected, starting with tennis players, followed by athletes in archery, fencing, judo, and shooting. The programme aims to use whole-genome sequencing to link genetic variations with athletic performance.
