Description
We are Genomics England and our vision is to create a world where everyone benefits from genomic healthcare.
Introducing our refreshed podcast identity: Behind the Genes, previously known as The G Word. Join us every fortnight, where we cover everything from the latest in cutting-edge research to real-life stories from those affected by rare conditions and cancer. With thoughtful conversations, we take you behind the science.
You can also tune in to our Genomics 101 explainer series which breaks down complex terms in under 10 minutes.
