Description
Melissa Wake and co-authors describe Generation Victoria, called GenV, in a 2024 paper. GenV is a large birth cohort in the state of Victoria in Australia. It was set up for children born from October 2021 to October 2023 and for their parents. The team says it is the largest such cohort in the country.
Parents agree that the study may link health, school, social care, and place based records. It may also use left over blood and other samples. The paper reports more than 117,000 people so far and high rates of linked records. It sets out plans for work on genes, the home area, and early care.
