This year we are celebrating #RareDiseaseDay by launching a Genomics Information Toolkit - a resource to help individuals and their families understand and access genetics and genomic health services in Queensland https://t.co/OzNJdKpGMs

For some people it might be the “right test at the right time”. But sometimes genomic sequencing will not be the best way to reach a diagnosis. So when is it most useful and what does your doctor consider before suggesting it? https://t.co/iH5j8EkcuK

[QLDgenomics @QLDgenomics]

Well done @AusGenomics and the team who contributed to this important work – this tool encourages ongoing engagement with research participants, giving them more control over how their data is used

[Australian Genomics @AusGenomics]

New @AusGenomics platform that gives research participants more choice and control has been featured in the @ejhg_journal! CTRL, as it is called, uses the principles of dynamic consent. Read the story at: https://t.co/tFwn8PASYh and access paper here: https://t.co/jvIaleFVDZ

We’ve been working with Qld Health to prepare the #nursing and #midwifery workforce for #genomics healthcare. This includes 11 new genomics nursing positions in #Queensland in cancer, childhood immunology, infection control and cardiology @qldhealthnews https://t.co/WMjJaO0cGK

[QLDgenomics @QLDgenomics]

It's been a year like no other, but in 2020 we made plenty of inroads to further embed #genomics into #healthcare in Queensland. Thank you to all our partners for helping to make it happen!

Queensland Genomics Cardiac #Genomics project is up and running! The first 2 patients have now received genomic testing via the Cardiac Genetics Clinic at @TPCHosp_Bris
Thanks to support from the Genomics Institute and the Statewide Cardiac Clinical Network

Genetics healthcare professionals in Australia have observed initial positive impacts of the moratorium on patients’ concerns about genetic discrimination but feel that greater government oversight is needed. Well done @JaneMTiller #HGSA2020
