Affected by a rare/genetic condition? Want to find out more about genomics &amp; health in Wales? Join us! All welcome.

Are you affected by a rare or genetic condition? Are you a member of the public interested in finding out more about genomics and health? Join us for a Virtual Genomics Café! This initiative is being run by Wales Gene Park in collaboration with Genomics Partnership Wales. The first café of 2021 will provide the opportunity to ‘Meet the Professional’ working in genetics and genomics, with relaxed talks from experts including:
<ul><li>A researcher from Swansea University working on rare, genetic conditions
</li><li>A Genetic Counsellor from the All Wales Medical Genomics Service 
</li><li>A Biomedical Scientist at Public Health Wales’ Pathogen Genomics Unit
</li></ul>
The Virtual Café will be a relaxed, informal opportunity to meet others and find out about new advances in the area of genomic medicine in Wales. It will also be a chance for people to come together, be supported by others in their communities and let us know how we can better support those affected by rare or genetic conditions. The café is FREE to join via Zoom, but you will need to register via Eventbrite to receive the joining link and instructions (you will also need to set up a free Zoom account).
Don’t forget to bring your cuppa and a snack to enjoy during the café!
