  Mountain Region Bioinformatics Regional Resource Lead and AMD Training Lead for the Mountain Region and Community of Practice Domain Lead
  
  Utah is part of the Mountain region. In 2018, the AMD program established workforce development regions across the country. Each region has an AMD training lead and a bioinformatics lead. This provides a network of customized AMD support which helps develop skills and provides training assistance to public health labs across the country.
  
  Utah’s Bioinformatic Regional Resource Lead acts as a regional consultant. They provide support to labs within the region on data analysis and how to interface with IT departments, and serve as a resource for the AMD Program. Its AMD Training Lead provides support to labs in the region on pathogen-specific training and cross-cutting AMD training to help staff develop the critical skills necessary to extract, analyze, and interpret sequencing data.
  
  The Office of AMD has established five communities of practice to build processes and tools for relevant interests, concerns, and priorities regarding the AMD Platform. The AMD Platform will serve CDC programs and STLT partners by providing a common infrastructure to perform genomic epidemiology and contribute high-quality data to publicly available data repositories. Utah’s Domain Leader facilitates collaboration between OAMD and the public health community for the Agile Architecture: Pipeline Development and Automation CoP.
