The Melbourne Genomics Health Alliance Demonstration Project (2014-2015) tested a whole-of-system approach to:

* evaluating genomics in practice
* upskilling relevant professionals
* managing genomic information

The Symposium will highlight:

Lessons learnt from the clinical ‘Flagships’

Spanning adult and paediatric medicine, cancer and germline conditions, the Flagships demonstrated:

  • when and how genomic sequencing is useful for patient care
  • considerations for current and future service delivery

Impact of shared approaches

  • for analysis and management of genomic information
  • to consent and ethical issues

The symposium will be followed by networking drinks, from approximately 5.20pm to 6pm.
