Led from the Melbourne Children\u2019s Campus, the GenV Cohort will be open to the families of all 170,000 Victorian newborns over 2021-2. At its foundation are consent; existing geospatial, clinical and administrative data; biosamples; GenV-specific data; and melding observational and intervention design. GenV\u2019s solutions focus is shaping its core digital phenotyping and health economic measures to maximally support trials, registries, health services research, informatics, genomics, precision population health and public policy. Launched in December 2017 with philanthropic and state funding, we aim for lasting change in large scale research.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We seek input from across the Campus and beyond to maximise GenV\u2019s value to all who care for and about children and their parents.
