#TheCoronaCast Ep 11. The Role of Genetics in Tackling & Understanding COVID19 with Dr Melita Irving, Consultant Geneticist & Author "Human DNA Manual"
Genetics is at the very core of understanding the origin of the Coronavirus, its potentially devastating effects on fit and healthy patients, and will likely play a role in the development of a vaccine in the future. There has been a concerted effort by the COVID19 Host Genetics Initiative to generate, share and analyse data to learn the genetic determinants of COVID-19 susceptibility, severity and outcomes. In this episode, #TheCoronaCast host Mr Pranai Buddhdev speaks to a previous guest of #ThePaedipodsCast, Dr Melita Irving, a clinical geneticist from Guy's & St Thomas' Hospitals London about how this agile pivot in research projects and collaboration will yield the information necessary to help tackling the global pandemic.
