Genomics continues to revolutionise science.
But there’s untapped potential for new discoveries through collaboration between genomics and the humanities, social sciences, bioethics and wider stakeholders.

I can't find African Scientists and researchers easily on here. As the second largest continent with 1.3 billion inhabitants our perspectives matter. I'm creating a starterpack to find folks, follow them and amplify them. If you are an African Scientist let me know below so I can add you. Thanks.
