Behind the Genes

Genetics vs genomics, what’s the difference?


Listen Later

People often use the terms genetics and genomics interchangeably, but is this right? In the first of a series of explainer podcasts, we’ve asked Dr Rich Scott, Chief Medical Officer, and Deputy CEO here at Genomics England, to clarify in less than 10 minutes, exactly what these two terms mean and when we should use them.

You can also find a series of short videos explaining some of the common terms you might encounter about genomics on our YouTube channel.

You can read the transcript here: https://files.genomicsengland.co.uk/documents/Podcast-transcripts/Genetics-vs-genomics-whats-the-difference.docx  

If you’ve got any questions, or have any other topics you’d like us to explain, feel free to contact us on [email protected].
