Summary
Australian Genomics is working towards the ethical, appropriate and evidence-based application of clinical genomics into health practice in Australia. Importantly, we strive for nationally-consistent approaches that are informed by international best practice, and the needs of the clinical community – as well as the Australian public. The projects below progress clinical genomic practice in Australia: improving the accessibility and utility of consent materials; developing recommendations to enhance the quality and standardisation of clinical (phenotype) information capture and sharing; exploring the possibility of an Australian genomic test directory; and promoting the use of nationally consistent genomic terminology.
