How Genetics is Transforming Health and Why Diversity is The key

The increasing participation of African scientists and communities is changing the field of human genetics and genomics and leading to profound new insights.  We hear from Charles Rotimi, President of the American Society of Human Genetics, at their recent conference in Los Angeles, USA, to discuss why diversity in genetics is so crucial.

And Michael Bauer from the University of Arkansas and Neil Hanchard from the National Human Genome Research Institute discuss why human genetics research needs to shift focus to increase diversity and improve health.
