Victorian Clinical Genetics Services (VCGS)
Victorian Clinical Genetics Services (VCGS) is a specialist prenatal, childhood and adult genetics service. We are an Australian not-for-profit subsidiary of Murdoch Children’s Research Institute (MCRI) and one of the largest contributors driving genetic healthcare, research and policy in the country. We marked our 34th anniversary in July 2022 and acknowledge our fantastic donors, funders, supporters and collaborators over this time, including the global genetics community, and the Australian Federal and Victorian State governments. Located on site at The Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) Melbourne, we provide an integrated genetic consultation, counselling, testing and diagnostic service for children, adults, families, and prospective parents. Our unique service includes the ability to draw on specific expert knowledge from Melbourne Children’s campus partners RCH and The University of Melbourne, providing individuals and families with accessible and high quality healthcare. As a pioneering not-for-profit organisation, all our proceeds go back into translational medical research so that we can continue to develop innovative solutions to complex genetic health challenges.
