The KidGen Collaborative is an Australian-based consortium of clinicians, genetic counsellors and researchers focused on providing a definitive diagnosis to patients with inherited forms of kidney disease within a multidisciplinary clinic.
Within a three year period standard care for patients with inherited kidney disease will include access to a multi-disciplinary clinic, with genomic testing and genetic counselling for the family where appropriate
counsellor improve the outcome, patient experience and standard of care for patients with inherited kidney disease and their families
