Dr. Robin Hayeems' Research Team - GENOMETRICS

Evidence on #ClinicalUtility is needed to to inform #HealthPolicy and funding decisions related to #GeneticTesting. Our C-GUIDE tool is a fast and easy way to build this evidence! Find out more here: lab.research.sickkids.ca/hayeems/c-guid…

🚨Our study protocol examining the impact of medically actionable secondary findings on paediatric patients, families, and the healthcare system has been published in @BMJ_Open. Congratulations to first-author @DanielAssamad! Read here: bmjopen.bmj.com/content/16/3/e… #genomics #HTA

Grateful for the amazing talks, posters, and booths we visited at @TheACMG Meeting this year! Already excited for next time #ACMGMtg26 #GeneticsMeeting

Another great day at @TheACMG Meeting in Baltimore! Erin from the GENOMETRICS team presented a poster on our work to establish a culturally sensitive measure of personal utility of #genetictesting. Thanks to everyone who stopped by! #ACMGMtg26

🌟Successful Day 1 of @TheACMG Meeting in Baltimore! Today’s plenary explored the evolving role of expanded #newbornscreening in early‑life care. Excited to keep learning from new research and its implications for clinical practice & policy. #ACMGMtg26 #Genetics

🎤 Honoured to have Dr. Lena Dolman of GENOMETRICS present our C‑GUIDE–Critical Care work at @CanGARDSickKids #RareDiseaseDay. In a setting where rapid, judicious use of complex technologies matters most, our tool can help capture the utility of genetic testing. 💙🧬

Unlocking the true potential of #genomics as part of #PrecisionChildHealth means looking beyond diagnoses. Published in @NatureMedicine, #SKResearch from Drs. Hayeems and Mackley share why we need more comprehensive measurement in genomics ⬇️ sickkids.ca/en/news/archiv…

#Genomesequencing is about more than just a diagnosis—it’s about impact.🧬Drs. Robin Hayeems and @MichaelMackley explain why international collaboration and meaningful #healthoutcome measures are key to unlocking genomics’ full value. Read: sickkids.ca/en/news/archiv…

#Scopingreview reveals that workforce shortages, infrastructure limitations, and economic challenges are key barriers to implementing #GenomeWideSequencing (GWS) programs worldwide. bit.ly/45MwpC0 #Geneticservicedelivery #implementation

🌍 We’re excited to support the evaluation of @GeneticAlliance’s iHope project with C-GUIDE, examining how #GenomicTesting informs diagnosis, care, and family wellbeing. Read more: shorturl.at/zJzkf

Great afternoon at @SickKidsNews @LeongCentre Trainee Hub session on Building Authentic Partnerships with Patient & Community Partners! The panelists shared tangible strategies for creating safe spaces, valuing diverse perspectives, & fostering meaningful connection in research.

🚨 New GENOMETRICS publication in @GIMJournal: @whiwonlee and team share findings from a global scoping review on barriers & facilitators to implementing #genomewidesequencing. Read here: gimjournal.org/article/S1098-… #Genomics #ImplementationScience

🎧How do exome & genome sequencing compare for rare disease diagnostics? Dr. Robin Hayeems dives into a randomized implementation effectiveness trial on GenePod by @GIMJournal, exploring Canada’s rollout & what’s next for #genomicmedicine. Listen here: gimjournal.org/audio-do/decem…

Excited to welcome @UWaterloo co-op student Alexandria to the GENOMETRICS team! She’ll be with us for the next 8 months, contributing to multiple projects and helping drive meaningful research forward. Welcome aboard! #ResearchStudent #ResearchTeam

Some of the GENOMETRICS team enjoyed some delicious holiday treats together today! 🎄✨ Wishing everyone a joyful season filled with warmth, laughter, and good cheer. #HappyHolidays #SeasonOfJoy

🚨Today, @MichaelMackley of GENOMETRICS delivered #GeneticsGrandRounds @SickKidsNews. He shared a framework to implement & evaluate #mainstreaming in #medicalgenetics, barriers/facilitators to #GWS among non-geneticist clinicians in Ontario, and the evolving role of geneticists.

🎆 Celebrating the season with our incredible GENOMETRICS team! A night of delicious food, fun board games, and lots of laughs. Here’s to a successful year ahead!🥂 #HolidayParty

👏 What an incredible day @SickKidsNews Research Institute Scientific Retreat at Roy Thomson Hall! We’re proud of GENOMETRICS team members Erin & Daniel who presented posters and celebrated SickKids’ 150 years of innovation in child health. #SickKids150 #ResearchRetreat

November was big for our CanScreen T1D team! We participated in several key scientific forums, contributing to discussions on T1D risk screening, prevention, polygenic risk scores, and more. Thanks to all who joined us! 💙

Big shoutout to GENOMETRICS and @CanScreenT1D team member Celine Chen for presenting at the @DiabetesCanada conference! 🎉 Her poster showcased work on creating a core outcome set for #Type1Diabetes screening—paving the way for better research and improved screening practices! 👏

New in @NatureMedicine: Evaluating #genomic tech needs a whole-of-system approach, but implementation is complex. This review synthesizes a decade of #healtheconomics insights & real-world experience through global collab, co-authored by Dr. Hayeems. Read: nature.com/articles/s4159…
