I was really pleased to be able to participate in this event-thank you to the organisers and speakers today!

[Australasian Society of Genetic Counsellors (ASGC) @GCAustralasia]

The closing speech by @KateRileyGC eloquently captured the essence of what genetic counselling is about ‘we can’t change individuals DNA or their personal experience but what we do offer is a supportive, caring environment that support families through difficult times’

The cupcakes were delicuous, too. Congrats Emma!

[Australasian Society of Genetic Counsellors (ASGC) @GCAustralasia]

Congratulations to the winner of the inaugural #GCAD2022bakeoff - Emma Celis! You are the lucky recipient of reimbursement of the ASGC SIG day registration! So many excellent entries made the decision very difficult for the GCAD working group!

[Ana 🌈🌿 @VintageGenes]

@shelietweets @KateRileyGC @GCAustralasia @EmmaCancerGC I added #GCAD2022BakingDownBarriers to our list of hashtags after @elizakcourtney suggested it as a title for the bakeoff!

@Ella_West_4 @GCAustralasia You're welcome! P.s. I love the mosaic blastocysts, very creative 😁

[A/Prof Jodie Ingles @jodieingles27]

I am a cardiac genetic counsellor in Australia. Know what I’d like to talk about? Our time & expertise being reimbursed by Medicare. Want broader & equitable access to genomics? Then let our workforce do our job and bill for it #GeneticCounselorAwarenessDay #anzgeneticcounsellors

@HannahThomson13 Love these!!

[Ana 🌈🌿 @VintageGenes]

@KateRileyGC @GCAustralasia Haha she's a radiographer so I don't think the SIG Registration prize would be very enticing for her!

Technically as a working group member, I can't enter the bakeoff competition but maybe she can? #GCAD2022BakingDownBarriers
