Does Genomics Matter in Primary Care?
Send us a Text Message.
THIS EPISODE: Do you have any idea about how much of a role Genomics is beginning to play in the care of our patients? Or do you continue to pretend it doesn't matter?
We're excited to introduce a 6-part series that demystifies genomics for Primary Care staff. In a manner that is easy-to-understand and grounded in the realities of working in Primary Care, the experts cover everything we need to know, step-by-step. This is episode 1 of 6.
The episode is about helping you understand the importance of Genomics to Primary Care Professionals. You will learn that applying Genomics is actually more for Primary Care than for anyone else (including geneticists). You'll also learn that it doesn't have to be complicated.
As your 'average' frontline GP and paramedics, co-hosts Munir Adam and Claire Green speak to the experts, to whom we are grateful:
Dr Angela George, North Thames Genomic Medicine Service Co-Medical Director, and Consultant Medical Oncologist and Consultant in Oncogenetics at the Royal Marsden Hospital. Dr Anwar Khan, working GP and GP Lead for Genomics (NTGMSA).SPONSOR: The Genomics mini-series was sponsored by, and co-produced with the North Thames Genomics Medicine Service.
