Join Australian Genomics’ DNA dialogue seminar “The Genome Odyssey” featuring Dr Euan Ashley from Stanford University in the US.
In The Genome Odyssey, Euan brings the breakthroughs of precision medicine to life through the real diagnostic journeys of his patients and the tireless efforts of his fellow doctors and scientists as they hunt to prevent, predict, and beat disease.

Dr Euan Ashley is Chair of the Department of Medicine and Arthur L. Bloomfield Professor of Medicine and Professor of Genetics, of Biomedical Data Science and, by courtesy, of Pathology at Stanford University. He is best known for his contributions to the field of medical genomics. At Stanford, he is the founding director of the Clinical Genomics Program, the Centre for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, and the Catalyst Program for biomedical innovation. Euan was awarded the American Heart Association’s Medal of Honour for genomics and precision medicine. He was recognised by the Obama Administration for contributions to Personalised Medicine. He has co-founded five biotechnology companies. His book describing the application of genome pioneers to rare diseases, The Genome Odyssey: Medical Mysteries and the Incredible Quest to Solve Them, was released in February 2021.
About DNA dialogue
With the wealth of genomic expertise internationally, this seminar series is a forum for members of the genomics community in Australia and beyond to learn of new developments in health genomics, and the overseas experience.
