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.
