Abstract
Establishing genomics (and other ‘omics’) within existing clinical practice is recognised as challenging. Traditional barriers for these emerging technologies such as funding, stakeholder acceptance and a conservative healthcare ecosystem are evident. However, the implementation of genomics into clinical
practice is further complicated by the number of stages involved in getting genomics from the bench to the bedside (from gene discovery to financing and regulation), the myriad of people and professions involved (from policy makers to frontline clinicians) and the dynamic nature of genomics knowledge and application. Frameworks that work within this complex environment/ecosystem exist but are not always employed.
