Phenomenal study led by Prof Zornitza Stark & involving many Australian Genomics geneticists - rapid acute care diagnostic genomics impacting health care for so many families. Greatly looking forward to her presentation International Congress of Genetics 2023! 👋🧬🏥 Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI)

Thank you RARE Revolution Magazine for shining a light on the importance of #NewbornScreening. We’re proud to be able to provide this service to Victorian babies & families at VCGS Victorian Clinical Genetics Services (VCGS) Seb Lunke Ronda Greaves

The Australian Acute Care Genomics program report shows that integrating rapid whole genome sequencing and multiomic analyses informs diagnoses and treatment decisions in a prospective cohort of 290 critically ill infants & children. Prof Zornitza Stark Seb Lunke nature.com/articles/s4159…

Congratulations AIMBRAIN team. It’s a privilege to act in support of this pioneering work. VCGS salutes your leadership and vision ANZCHOG 🎗️ RCD Foundation Jordan R. Hansford

🧬 Starting today, all eligible Australians can access subsidised #carrierscreening, thanks to the #Medicare Benefits Schedule. 🧬 VCGS has pioneered #genetic carrier screening since 2006. Read more: vcgs.org.au/news/medicare-…

Today marks a significant milestone towards equitable healthcare in Australia. MCRI and Victorian Clinical Genetics Services (VCGS) are proud to support giving people access to vital genetic information, enabling them to make more informed decisions about family planning.

Sant-Rayn Pasricha Given a fantastic talk at David on anaemia in Malawi . While their amazing study of IV iron replacement in pregnant women was negative when published, a year later IV was better for the mothers but no impact on the resulting infants. It was very safe.

Hot off the press: Our BabyScreen+ list of over 600 actionable genes and conditions that we screen for in our #gNBS pilot now published: gimjournal.org/article/S1098-… Thanks to the great work of Prof Zornitza Stark, Lilian Downie and many others.

Genomic newborn screening is coming but what should we screen for? BabyScreen+ gene list and comparison with international newborn sequencing gene lists now published! Prof Zornitza Stark Seb Lunke gimjournal.org/article/S1098-…
