Our OPHA Chair, Dr Kuinileti Chang Wai, recently attended the launch of a Pacific Genomic study last week. This study will look at the genetics of conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, gout, and other long-term health conditions, with the aim of improving diagnosis and treatment in ways that work for both Pasifika people and other communities.

Pictured above is Dr Chang Wai amongst community elders, leaders, Pacific clinicians, and the research team leading the project.
