Implementing genomics into healthcare

Genetic information has been used in the diagnosis and management of patients for many decades. Recently, exponential progress in understanding of the genetic basis of diseases and ability to rapidly and cheaply sequence the genome has begun to transform health care. However, the availability of a new test does not ensure its adoption by clinicians or optimal use of the information. Barriers to the use of genomics in health care have been identified in the domains of ethics, data management, interpretation and workforce. This presentation will introduce international and local approaches to addressing these barriers and optimising the use of genomics in clinical practice.
