The focus now is to embed genomics into Victoria’s healthcare system, to ensure a resilient system that is able to respond to current, emerging and future health challenges.

Over the next four years, Melbourne Genomics will accelerate Victorians’ access to the benefits of genomics – quicker and more accurate diagnosis and more precise and efficient treatment.

Through our program of innovation and medical research, Melbourne Genomics will:

  • Drive system-wide adoption of genomics – safely, equitably and efficiently – for patients across Victoria
  • Harness the power of data to accelerate genomic medicine and research and enable precision care
  • Expand and embed genomic expertise, equipping the healthcare and laboratory workforce Victoria-wide.

Genomics is a vitally important capability of Victoria’s health system, necessary to deliver world-class care for Victorians.

This final phase of work is funded by the Victorian Government and the 10 Alliance members. Read more here.
