One of the mysteries of Covid19 is the vastly different ways it can affect peoples’ health. While one person may become seriously ill, another may display no symptoms at all. We’ll explore how genomics is helping to understand our susceptibility to the virus.
Event chair:
Angela Saini (Superior: The Return of Race Science, Inferior: How Science Got Women Wrong)
Event panel:
Dr Kerstin Meyer, Wellcome Sanger Institute
Dr Kenneth Baillie, University of Edinburgh
Dr Michael Morgan, University of Cambridge
Covid Connections is a series of panel discussions organised by Wellcome Connecting Science and COG UK (COVID19 Genomics UK Consortium) exploring Covid19 and the role genomics science is playing in combatting the pandemic. Hear from the people who are making this happen.
