MCRI is committed to creating a culture of inclusivity, equity and respect that celebrates and values the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our people.

About the program: Generation Victoria (GenV)

GenV is a world-first initiative that transforms the whole of the State of Victoria into a single dynamic health and solutions platform, breaking down barriers in research to solve pressing questions and translating that into tangible actions that can improve the health, development and well- being of children and younger adults (their parents).

One of the world’s largest birth cohorts, GenV will be open to all 170,000 babies born in Victoria over two full years. Its design comprises consent; use of existing data and biosamples; augmented with GenV-specific measurement; and a design to maximise its multi-use potential e.g. to support trials, registries, place and community, discovery and health services research at the population level.
