Building a trusted evidence base for a knowledge-based Northeast.
Neomics is developing a curated, evidence-based knowledge resource focused on Assam and Northeast India. It brings together credible regional data, research findings, health and epidemiological evidence, institutional information and policy-relevant insights to help stakeholders understand the region, identify evidence gaps and explore opportunities for research and collaboration.
Explore the Evidence
Population & Society
Demography, population characteristics, communities and socioeconomic indicators relevant to Northeast India.
Health & Epidemiology
Health conditions, disease patterns, public health, healthcare systems and epidemiological evidence relevant to the region.
Governance & Development
Governance, infrastructure, economy, development and policy-relevant evidence across Assam and the Northeast.
Research & Institutions
Research institutions, investigators, clinical research activity and regional knowledge resources.
Evidence → Insight → Opportunity
Regional evidence is most valuable when it helps explain what is happening, where important gaps remain and where further research, collaboration or policy attention may be needed. Neomics aims to connect credible evidence with regional insight and practical opportunities for research and knowledge development.
What the Evidence Shows
Curated data, research findings and institutional information from credible sources, with attention to geography, reference year and evidence quality.
Where the Gaps Are
Identifying important unanswered questions, limitations in available evidence and areas where Northeast-specific research may be needed.
Where Neomics Can Contribute
Supporting evidence mapping, knowledge synthesis, research intelligence and identification of opportunities for research and collaboration.
Health & Epidemiology
Northeast India presents a distinctive health and epidemiological landscape shaped by population characteristics, geography, environment, lifestyle, healthcare access and cross-border connectivity. Neomics seeks to organise credible evidence on these regional patterns, identify important evidence gaps and connect health research with opportunities for collaboration and impact.
Priority Evidence Areas
Cancer Epidemiology
Regional patterns of cancer incidence, including head & neck, oesophageal, gastric and other priority cancers, together with relevant behavioural, environmental and biological factors.
Infectious, Vector-Borne & Zoonotic Diseases
Evidence on malaria, Japanese encephalitis, acute encephalitis syndrome and other infectious-disease patterns shaped by ecology, climate, mobility and cross-border dynamics.
Drug-Related & Blood-Borne Infections
Regional evidence relating to HIV, hepatitis and other conditions associated with transmission networks, including populations affected by injecting drug use.
Population, Genomics & Rare Disorders
Research concerning population characteristics, genetic variation, haemoglobinopathies, G6PD deficiency and other regionally relevant genetic and inherited health conditions.
Environment, Climate & Health
Evidence concerning flooding, water quality, arsenic, fluoride and other environmental exposures and their implications for population health.
Why Northeast-Specific Health Evidence Matters
Northeast India comprises diverse populations and distinctive geographic, environmental, cultural and epidemiological conditions. These characteristics can shape patterns of health and disease and create research questions that may not be fully answered by evidence generated in other settings. Neomics therefore seeks to strengthen the regional evidence base through research and knowledge systems that recognise Northeast-specific contexts and population characteristics.
From Regional Difference to Research Question
The objective is not to assume that evidence from elsewhere is irrelevant, but to identify where regional evidence is limited, where findings may require contextual validation, and where population-specific research could improve understanding of disease, prevention, diagnosis and healthcare delivery.
Population & Genomics
Understanding population characteristics, genetic variation and regionally relevant biological factors that may inform future epidemiological and translational research.
Disease & Epidemiology
Mapping regional disease patterns and identifying where stronger Northeast-specific epidemiological evidence is needed.
Environment & Health
Examining how environmental exposures, climate, geography and living conditions interact with health outcomes across the region.
Evidence Gaps & Research Opportunities
A stronger regional evidence base requires more than collecting information. It requires identifying what is already known, where evidence remains limited and what questions merit further investigation. Neomics seeks to organise these gaps into a research-oriented view of priorities and opportunities across Northeast India.
Evidence Gaps
Where regional data, epidemiological studies or population-specific evidence remain limited, fragmented or insufficiently comparable.
Research Opportunities
Questions that could benefit from epidemiological, clinical, translational, genomic or interdisciplinary research focused on Northeast India.
Collaboration Opportunities
Opportunities to connect researchers, healthcare institutions, NGOs, technology organisations, funders and other stakeholders around evidence-based priorities.
Regional Research Landscape
Understanding the regional research ecosystem is an important part of identifying evidence gaps and opportunities. Neomics aims to organise publicly available information on relevant research activity, institutions, investigators and areas of expertise to help stakeholders understand the existing landscape and identify potential avenues for collaboration.
Clinical Research
Research activity across therapeutic areas and health conditions relevant to Northeast India.
Research Institutions
Universities, medical colleges, hospitals and other institutions contributing to regional research and evidence generation.
Investigators & Expertise
Researchers and clinical investigators associated with relevant research areas and therapeutic domains.
Research Themes
Emerging and established areas where regional evidence, interdisciplinary research or further investigation may be valuable.
Clinical Research Intelligence
Neomics seeks to develop a structured view of clinical research activity relevant to Northeast India by organising publicly available research information across therapeutic areas, institutions and investigators. The objective is to make the regional research landscape easier to understand and help identify potential areas for collaboration, evidence generation and further investigation.
Therapeutic Areas
Mapping clinical research activity across relevant therapeutic areas and health conditions.
Institutions & Investigators
Identifying institutions and investigators associated with relevant clinical research activity.
Research Opportunities
Highlighting areas where existing research, evidence gaps and regional priorities may create opportunities for further investigation or collaboration.
Northeast Clinical Research Landscape
A structured resource mapping publicly available clinical research activity across Northeast India. The resource will organise information by investigator, therapeutic area and institution, helping stakeholders understand the regional clinical research ecosystem and identify potential avenues for collaboration.
