Excerpt from article:

"Last month, the Festival of Genomics hosted an engaging and popular panel discussion about genomics in 2017, which quickly navigated in the direction of public understanding. Panellist Dr Anna Middleton was very much ‘pro’ public understanding and education, highlighting that its good for the general population to be in tune with genomics and genetic testing, considering the vast amount of inherited conditions that people may be at risk of."
