Wonderful evening at the Research Australia Health & Medical Research Awards, where I was honoured to receive the Advocacy Award.

I highlighted the Gov's recent announcement by about the genetic discrimination ban, & that we still need legislation drafted and introduced to achieve this outcome! ๐Ÿงฌ๐Ÿ’œ

Last week's motion in Parliament highlighted the success of DNA Screen for adult disease prevention & the announced ban on genetic discrimination in life insurance (still to be legislated).
