🚨 Mark your calendars! Next Wednesday, March 19th 12:15 AEDT, join us for the GCR Connect meeting! @cwallingford.bsky.social will be presenting on the power of applying a problem-driven approach to research and falling in love with the problem. #genechat Register here➡️ hgsa.org.au/iCore/Events...

Our #PRS clinical implementation meeting was a huge success! Great discussions on clinical implementation and next steps. Big thanks to everyone who joined & the lovely hosting at @petermaccc.bsky.social ! #genechat @tatyanes.bsky.social @amcinerney.bsky.social

Amazing time at our 3rd away day with our fantastic team (minus a few!). We celebrated our wins over the past year, reflected on our leadership styles, and fine-tuned our pitching skills to take us through 2025. Exciting to see how far we've come and looking forward to what’s ahead! 🚀 #genechat

Excited to share a blog I wrote for MSCAN about my recent research! 📝 Understanding personal melanoma risk could transform prevention & early detection—but how do we communicate it [email protected] Read more here: 🔗 mscan.org.au/melanoma-per... #genechat

Cancer Australia has launched a National Framework for Genomics in Cancer Control🎉We're proud to have contributed to this framework, focused on improving access to equitable, culturally safe & evidence-based genomic testing in cancer care #genomics #cancer www.canceraustralia.gov.au/key-initiati...

As promised, more photos of my perfect little baby girl Rosie. 🐶 🥰 #doggos

I’ve had the privilege of running this community initiative, and it’s been incredible! 🏃‍♂️💙 An early morning run club open to all, where we move together and finish with recovery—saunas & ice baths. 🌅❄️🔥 I hope to always balance my life with work, play, and connection ☺️ #RiseRunRevive

🚨1 Month on BlueSky!🚨 Allow us to re-introduce ourselves. 🚀 Meet Integrating Genomics into Medicine! We're a team of genetic counsellors, clinicians & researchers making genomic testing more accessible in Australia! Follow us for updates on genomics in healthcare! 🧬💡 DM to connect! #Genechat #ELSI

Just attended a fantastic talk by @tatyanes.bsky.social 🎤 on bridging the gap to implementing polygenic risk scores 🧬 and genomic testing 🏥 in clinical practice—so many great insights from her research and clinical experience🔬✨ #Genomics #PolygenicRisk #genechat

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

Part 2 on presentation skills I love to see! #genechat #Sciencecommunication #presentationskills

As someone passionate about clear & engaging science communication, I thought I'd highlight a few presentation skills that I LOVE to see. It's all about telling a good story... #genechat #communication #presentationskills *This is a recycle post, I did a few years back on everyone's eX-platform.

📢 Don't miss @tatyanes.bsky.social at the Frazer Institute Seminar, 12 Feb, 9:30 at #TRI! She'll share insights from the #BRIDGEstudy on improving genomic testing & support for families affected by paediatric Inborn errors of immunity. #genechat @tatyanes.bsky.social @emilydebortoli.bsky.social

Check out this upcoming free event focused on #PRS clinical implementation research! 🧬 We have a great speaker list and everyone is welcome to attend! register at the link in the below post ⬇️ @petermaccc.bsky.social @ausgenomics.bsky.social #UQ #genechat @tatyanes.bsky.social

Next: "Future implications of PRS for life insurance underwriting" 📄PRS may impact genetic discrimination (GD) for life insurance, deterring uptake & research. As PRS use grows, the issue of GD must be addressed. ➡️https://www.nature.com/articles/s41525-024-00407-x @tatyanes.bsky.social

1st up 🧬"Community concerns about genetic discrimination (GD) in life insurance persist in Australia" 📄Despite a partial moratorium, fears of GD deter genetic testing. Legislation for genetic results use in life insurance is needed. Read more: www.nature.com/articles/s41... @amcinerney.bsky.social

Starting the year by celebrating our team's achievements! 🎉 Throughout January, we will showcase the research we published last year—a feat of team work & collaboration. Stay tuned for more in 2025! 💡 #Genechat

🌸🏃‍♀️We're lacing up for the International Women’s Day Fun Run to support #BreastCancerResearch!💖 Every step helps provide vital resources to those affected by breast cancer. Together, we can make a real difference!💪✨ #IWD2025 Want to contribute? Donate here: fundraise.mater.org.au/fundraisers/...

Welcome @igmgroup.bsky.social to Bluesky 🦋 Follow them for all things genetic counselling ELSI genomics, mainstreaming and implementation research!! @tatyanes.bsky.social @amcinerney.bsky.social

A much needed recharge at the beach with my #1 girl 🐶

Finally finished my painting of a view from the Blue Mountains! It’s a photo I took last year, and the first time I’ve played with modelling clay in a painting 🎨

It’s been an absolute privilege to have @tatyanes.bsky.social and @amcinerney.bsky.social as my supervisors & to navigate the PhD journey alongside Ellie! I couldn’t have asked for better mentors or a better partner-in-crime for this experience. #PhDone

Congratulations to @emilydebortoli.bsky.social ‬on publishing a scoping on the "Utility of Genomic Testing in Children, Adolescents, & Young Adults with Cancer. Great summary 👇#genechat #skymed #academicsky

What a way to end the year at the Frazer Institute Awards! Honoured to receive the Outstanding Student Award and thrilled to see @amcinerney.bsky.social recognised with the Leadership Award. 🎉 #FrazerInstitute #StudentAwards #Leadership

Wow, what can I say? I’m honoured to have been awarded the “twinkle toes” #dermieawards for my fast paced walking in heels 👠 🏴‍☠️ Amongst other winners like the honourable “pirate award” for “Rrrrr” programming. 🐶 I’d like to thank my dog Rosie for her fast paced walks that led me to this award 🥇

🌟 NEW PAPER 🌟 www.nature.com/articles/s41... Integrated risk scores can drive targeted melanoma screening. We piloted a communication model with a booklet & GC appt: 📖 Booklet were useful. 🤝 GCs added sense of accountability 💡 No distress @tatyanes.bsky.social @amcinerney.bsky.social #PRS #genechat

May need to choose a different route today 😆. Typical Brisbane. Any excuse to cut my long run short…

I the spirit of work life balance, I’d like to share some happy “life” moments. I had a lovely (much needed) weekend away with my partner at our friends wedding. This meant Rosie also got a sleep over with her BFF. Photos I will cherish 🥰

One of the most important slides in my group presentation today involved a lighthearted lesson in “doggo”. Any excuse to fit Rosie into my slides 😂

So incredible to see the Australian government invest in genomic research. This will make a huge impact on so many areas of healthcare and hopefully improve outcomes for patients and families #genechat

🧬 Happy Genetic Counselling Awareness Day! Genetic counsellors help individuals and families understand how genetics affect health & provide guidance and support navigating genetic services. Proud to be part of this field & to know so many amazing counsellors making a real difference every day!

🌟 Hey Bluesky community! I hope to use this platform to share my work and connect with like minded researchers in my field. I will also be forcing cute photos of my dog on anyone who follows me! Allow me to introduce myself in the below thread ⬇️
