Human histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) belongs to class IIa of the zinc-dependent histone deacetylases. HDAC4 is an established target for various indication areas, in particular Huntington's disease, heart failure and cancer. To reduce unwanted side effects, it is advantageous to develop isozyme-selective inhibitors, which poses a major challenge due to the highly conserved active centers of the HDAC family.

Data from the first phase of HTAN are now available publicly. We describe the diverse datasets and modalities shared, multiple access routes to HTAN assay data and metadata, data standards, technical infrastructure and governance approaches, as well as our approach to sustained community engagement.

Medical imaging is an essential component for diagnosis and guided treatment, which is needed to meet the current challenges of increasing chronic diseases and preparedness for acute-care response. We present some key themes essential for improving global health equity, which were discussed at the 2023 RAD-AID Conference on International Radiology and Global Health.
