Prof Anna Middleton: Starting genomic conversations with X-Men

3rd February 2021

Episode description (from PodBean.com):

“What is a good deal for both sides? This isn’t about science taking from people. This is about science genuinely offering a partnership.”

How do we engage people in science and trickier subjects like genomics?

Professor Anna Middleton is a social scientist and genetic counsellor.

In this episode, Chris and Anna explore ways to springboard genomics into people’s awareness and engaging in a two-way conversation about it, especially when genomics might already be part of their lives in ways they don’t realise.
