Medical Research Future Fund Genomics Health Futures Mission - National Consultation on the refreshed Roadmap and Implementation Plan
Overview
The Genomics Health Futures Mission (GHFM) is investing $500.1 million over 10 years (2018-2028) in genomics research under the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF). It will improve testing, diagnosis and treatment for genetic diseases, guide prevention and help personalise treatment options to better target and improve health outcomes and reduce unnecessary interventions and associated health costs for all Australians.
A second Expert Advisory Panel was appointed in December 2023 to review the strategic priorities for research investment through the Mission and to refresh the Mission's Roadmap and Implementation Plan. The current Roadmap and Implementation Plan were published in October 2021.
The Mission’s Roadmap is a high level strategic document that includes the aim, vision, goal and priorities for investment for the Mission. To support the Roadmap, the Implementation Plan outlines the priorities for investment (short, medium and long term), evaluation approaches and measures, supporting activities, and collaborative opportunities.
The refreshed Roadmap and Implementation Plan will be used by the Department to design and implement Mission investments via Grant Opportunities promoted through GrantConnect.

This consultation is to seek feedback from the community on the Mission’s draft Roadmap and Implementation Plan. Both documents are available below.
Submissions will be used to inform any further development of the Roadmap and Implementation Plan by the Expert Advisory Panel.
Please note: late submissions cannot be accepted for this consultation.
