We really enjoyed growing our tree of life at Art in the Park Milton Keynes today. We'll be hosting a similar workshop at British Science Festival with Breaking Down Barriers so please come and join us.


How can we make communication on genetic and rare conditions easy to understand and more inclusive? We are honoured to have collaborated with Genomics England and Genetic Alliance UK on this handy toolkit. ow.ly/5MAo50SG3OO Genomics England Genetic Alliance UK NHS South East Genomic Medicine Service

I signed up for Our Future Health! If I'm doing public engagement with GRACE Project to increase diversity in genetics and healthcare research participation, have to practice what I preach!
