Are you interested in developing powerful predictive models from genomic data? Are you Bayesian-friendly? My lab is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to develop polygenic risk scores that generalises better across ancestry groups.

📢Want to know what the #CanRisk team and I have been working on? Head over to canrisk.org to take a look at our new results pages and report now available in 7 languages. Co-designed with patients, publics and healthcare professionals 🤩

Are you of South Asian ancestry living in Qld? Recruitment for The South Asians Genes and Health in Australia (SAGHA) study is now open. SAGHA aims to address the lack of ancestry diversity in genomics research. Come see us at Innes room 1 UQ News saghaus.org

#SAGHA at Springfield! Come say hi to Sonia Shah and I at The Greater Springfield Festival today! We're speaking to the #SouthAsian community about our study and spreading awareness to improve the diversity in health and genetic research UQ News UQ Centre for Community Health & Wellbeing Institute for Molecular Bioscience Translational Research Institute

Two days of meeting with MPs to continue advocating for an MBS item for genetic counselling 🧬

Australia needs MBS item numbers for genetic counselling! This will increase access for those currently on very long waiting lists! Hope the meetings went well Human Genetics Society of Australasia thanks for your work!

Grateful for Human Genetics Society of Australasia (inc MD ClinGens) going into bat for us & the many pts/families this will benefit. I’d love for those who made submissions against this application (cc’ AMA President) to justify WHY with evidence rather than just stating opposition #GeneChat 1/
