We’re working to enable faster and deeper genomic diagnosis & research, to bring genomic healthcare to all who need it.
Über uns
Genomics England works with the NHS to bring forward the use of genomic healthcare and research in Britain to help people live longer, healthier lives. Genomics is a ground-breaking area of medicine that uses our unique genetic code to help diagnose, treat and prevent illnesses. Thanks to advanced technology, scientists can now compare many people’s genetic code to make new discoveries that continually improve genomic healthcare. In 2013, Genomics England and the NHS launched the 100,000 Genomes Project, demonstrating how genomics insights can help doctors across the NHS, and building a foundation for the future by assembling a unique dataset. Genomics England is now supporting the NHS to deliver genomic testing for patients as part of routine healthcare, and providing the health data and technology that researchers need to make new discoveries and create more effective, targeted medicines. We work with thousands of people – patients, doctors and scientists – to increase our collective knowledge and enable faster and deeper genomic research, to bring genomic healthcare to all who need it.

An exciting opportunity that may be of interest for those researchers in our Pan-Cancer and Molecular Oncology Community. This free residential event, taking place from 25-28 November 2024 is being led by Cancer Research UK, in partnership with the MRC National Mouse Genetics Network, to collaborate with and compete against multidisciplinary teams of data and cancer experts at their first Spatial Biology Data Challenge. Find out more below, and apply by 16 September via this link: https://bit.ly/3Mi7pZj
Applications for our first Spatial Biology Data Challenge, in partnership with MRC National Mouse Genetics Network, are now open! We’re inviting multidisciplinary data and cancer experts to join our data challenge and use large-scale spatial biology data to further cancer research. You’ll need to leverage the diverse experience within your group to create or develop tools for earlier cancer detection and prevention. This free residential event will take place on 25-28 November 2024 at Mercure Glasgow City Hotel, Scotland. Domestic travel, accommodation and meal costs will be covered. Find out more about the challenges and who we’re looking for. Apply by 16 September 👉 https://bit.ly/3Mi7pZj #CRUKDataChallenge

New episode of Behind the Genes out now! In this episode, we discuss the barriers that diverse communities face in accessing genomic healthcare. Our guests explore how language barriers, cultural differences and socioeconomic factors impact acceptance and access to genomic medicine among marginalised communities. They also highlight the importance of educating healthcare professionals to communicate in culturally sensitive ways, and strategies that have been effective in fostering trust and engaging communities in genomic research and healthcare initiatives.

The Participant Panel is recruiting for a new Chair. Panel members come from different walks of life and bring their life experiences of rare disease or cancer. Anyone who has taken part in the 100,000 Genomes Project, the GenOMICC COVID-19 study, or has had a genomic test via the NHS Genomic Medicine Service, whose data is held in the NGRL can apply. Carers who took part are also welcome. Apply here: https://ow.ly/WWF050SS5jE

If you’re involved with a rare condition organisation or another charity that deals with vascular symptoms, contact [email protected] to find out more about the Vascular Voice Network, or visit the following link: https://lnkd.in/eghaRXgZ Rebecca Middleton
Vascular disease is a major health concern, accounting for 40% of deaths in the UK. Many rare conditions have vascular symptoms, yet there's no formal way to share vital research and experiences. With this in mind, Hereditary Brain Aneurysm Support, with the kind support of Genomics England, has been exploring a potentially new and exciting Vascular Voice Network, a collaborative platform dedicated to supporting those affected by vascular conditions. Our goal is to establish an independent group which unites representatives from rare conditions and common diseases with vascular symptoms to share research, best practices, and patient experiences. Join us for our very first meeting on Thursday, 19th September, at Genomics England’s Canary Wharf offices and online. We’re at the start of this journey, and while we are supporting this initiative, it is designed to be independent and collaborative. We’re keen to work with rare condition partners to form a new and potentially much-needed network. If you're interested in being part of this initiative, represent a rare condition community, and want to help us shape and build a network that makes a real difference, please contact us via the link to have your say in how it could be useful for your rare condition group. Let's work together to improve understanding and save lives. https://lnkd.in/eghaRXgZ Genomics England #VascularVoice #RareDiseaseResearch #HealthCareInnovation #CommunitySupport #PatientAdvocacy #VascularResearch
