A panel of experts analyzes a global paradigm shift where isolated research initiatives evolve into collaborative "moonshot" projects driven by commercial space markets and large-scale biomedical data sharing. Key figures discuss how fixed-price government contracts and risk-tolerant philanthropy have catalyzed private sector innovation in lunar economies, while the "All of Us" program and GA4GH work to standardize diverse genomic data for precision medicine. Looking forward, these converging sectors aim to reduce sequencing costs to $100, expand gene therapies to complex diseases, and implement "learning health systems" that integrate real-time data into clinical practice.
