Our principles

RESPECT

CPG respects the rights and agency of individuals and communities with regard to their data and scientific results

DIVERSITY

CPG expands representation of the diverse communities of Australia in genomic datasets

OPENNESS

CPG practices open science, releasing all data, code, and scientific results as rapidly and openly as possible

SCALABILITY

CPG builds platforms and approaches that are robust for use at population scale

CONNECTEDNESS

CPG is part of and helps to build a global network of leading genomic research teams.

The Centre for Population Genomics is a national initiative, jointly housed at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research and the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute. We work all across the country and collaborate with partners internationally and in Australia.

At CPG, we celebrate and respect diversity in our team and our work. We believe that including all human diversity in genomic research will empower medical care that benefits everyone.

We acknowledge the First Australian peoples on whose traditional lands we live and work across the country and pay our respects to their elders past, present and emerging. We gratefully accept the invitation in the Uluru Statement from the Heart “to walk with us in a movement of the Australian people for a better future”.
