We are seeing the consequences of an increasingly imperfect health system on a daily basis now. Kia Manawanui want to collect patient stories to support their efforts for improving the service for people with serious heart issues https://t.co/3fK0lFgVoQ

@martinkstiles Yeh wouldn't have to "scramble" if they had listened to the concerns several years ago eh. Or actually provided some regulation to the industry in the first place. Ah well, better late than never?

There is now a Pacific scholarship to study Master of Genetic Counselling. The course will be at UTS in Sydney, but can be done remotely. Will be an amazing opportunity for people with the relevant professional and cultural background https://t.co/vc4eVGQnTo #cardiogen

I do like a fun crowdfund situation! I also like a tasty saison :-) : https://t.co/aFv0kqknCz via @pledgeme

[Tom @Greasylightbulb]

@ashtonjesse @martinkstiles @TheCIDG Yup, well recognized! She got a room full of clinicians to understand the patch clamp technique for assessing cardiac ion channel function; and to think that it is interesting, fun, and also quite hard 👩‍🎓

[Tom @Greasylightbulb]

A favorite time of the year, NZ's heart rhythm meeting (HRNZ) with a great inheritable condition session. Hearing about variant curation, functional assessment, and WGS research, all happening in Aoteaora! Then I'm discussing insurance discrimination. #cardiogen @TheCIDG

[Dr Jane Tiller @JaneMTiller]

This week, @joshburnsmp introduced a motion calling for policy change against genetic discrimination in life insurance.
