Kathy Wu

St Vincent’s Clinical Genomics (SVCG) was launched in 2016 with a mission to improve each patient’s clinical and psychosocial outcomes through evidence-based innovative services, including genetic diagnosis, tailored treatment approaches, and risk management advice for relatives. It is one of the few services in the world providing an integrated genomics service within a mainstream public healthcare setting.

SVCG is a leader in Australian-specific clinical genomics research and is a driving force behind improvements in the utility and accessibility of genetic and genomic testing for patients and their doctors across a wide range of disease areas.

The service is supported by the rich research infrastructure of St Vincent’s Centre for Applied Medical Research (AMR) as well as its Precinct Partners, the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, and UNSW. These research capabilities, together with clinical specialist expertise on campus, offer highly integrated multidisciplinary care to patients at SVCG.
