About this Event
To celebrate 20 years since the landmark first draft of the complete Human Genome, we’ll be exploring some of the groundbreaking work happening at the Wellcome Genome Campus in Cambridgeshire and meeting the people behind the science.
Our free online talks will present personal stories and reflect on breathtaking advances in genomic science, while inviting audiences to discuss and share views of the impact of new discoveries on their lives and wider society, today and into the future.
We’ll hear from our current Campus Institute Directors, people who worked during the earliest days of the Human Genome Project, some of today’s early career researchers, and scientists working to defeat the spread of COVID-19.
In this session Dr Jane Loveland, Annotation Project Leader, EMBL-EBI, Dr Kerstin Howe, Senior Scientific Manager, Sanger Institute, and Dr Simon G. Gregory, Professor of Neurology, Duke University School of Medicine share their experiences.
The Genome Lates special anniversary season will run from July to November 2020. Sign up to our mailing list for regular updates and booking details.
