About this listen
Welcome to Genomics Now, a podcast that highlights how genomics is changing healthcare. This podcast series is recorded in 2025 and is part of the North Thames Genomic Medicine Service's (NT GMS) educational toolkit.
This is the first episode of our new series - A Genomics Conversation With. This series will focus on the power that open conversations hold in genomic medicine - whether that be in communities, between healthcare professionals or with families. Throughout the series we will feature conversations between members of our North Thames Genomic Medicine Service Team and people whose lives have been impacted by genomics.
In this episode, hosted by Dr Fiona Calvert, retired professional footballer Les Ferdinand talks about the importance of family history conversations in the Black Community around prostate cancer. He is in conversation with Liz Bancroft, NT GMS Lead Nurse, and Paul Ryves, NT GMSA Programme Director.
