It's Personal: Inclusive Research and Precision Medicine

This episode of the 'Two Scientists Walk into a Bar' podcast discusses the potential for more diverse genetic data to create a more equitable health landscape.

Achieving the first complete sequence of a human genome via the Human Genome Project was only the tip of the iceberg in unlocking the power of genomics for drug discovery and development. As the scientific community builds on our understanding of genomics, a critical question becomes, how can we collect and use genetic data to better understand and support the health of all communities, especially those who have been excluded from research in the past?

Maria Wilson, Executive Director, Project Team Leader, Genentech and Mark McCarthy, Principal Fellow and Executive Director of Human Genetics, Genentech explore the interplay between genetics, research, and health equity – and the potential for more diverse genetic data to create a more equitable health landscape.
