The Prioritising Aboriginal Genomics (in NSW) through Engagement and Skills (PAGES) project Description: Genomics or precision medicine is the gold standard treatment for many cancers. The Prioritising Aboriginal Genomics (in New South Wales, Australia) through Engagement and Skills (PAGES) project will chart a pathway to clinical genomics for Aboriginal Australians. It builds upon long- standing trusted relationships with Aboriginal communities in New South Wales (Australia), partners scientific and Aboriginal research leadership, and applies a co-design process working side-by-side with communities. The PAGES study was co-designed 'with the community, for the community'
