Based at the University of Queensland, our research aims to improve accessibility and equity of genomic testing across all healthcare settings🧬
Excited to share this new paper from Dr Sam Kahler & team. 3D total body photography + AI identified cutaneous phenotypes linked to late-onset invasive melanoma risk, advancing personalised melanoma risk stratification.

Congratulations @jenberkman.bsky.social on your amazing 3MT yesterday! 👏

Jen’s research focuses on empowering clinicians to explain polygenic risk scores to patients and customise screening based on personal risk, so it’s just about them.

Stay tuned! 📚
