Very excited that our paper summarising census findings of the Australasian genetic counselling workforce is now out!

We took a close look at workforce diversity, inclusion, inclusive practice, and capacity.

Advancements in genomic research 🧬 has led to an increase of secondary findings being returned to participants. But how are participants managing these additional findings? 🤔 (1/4)

Future research could focus on consistent use of appropriate psychosocial measures for genomic research, research designed to capture more detailed clinical outcomes from secondary findings, and of course include more GCs in research! 🧬(3/4).
