In the first of this informative four-part mini-series, Sandra Brown, Regional Manager of Providence Genetics in California, sits down with Amanda de Leon, Certified Genetic Counselor at Providence St. Jude Medical Center, to break down the myths surrounding the innovative field of genetics and genomics.
With the number of at-home tests, and family history quizzes widely available, people, now more than ever, have inconsistent information about how genetics works as well as how it impacts them and their loved ones. Listen as our experts tackle what you think you know and help identify several barriers - from financial barriers to personal beliefs and diversity barriers - that ultimately factor into your understanding of genetics.
