THIS EPISODE: Having understood the importance of Genomics in Primary Care, we start the beginning, and cover the basic terms concepts and how we in primary care should move forward when faced with a patient with such a presentation.

This is episode 2 of our 6 part series.

The episode is about helping you understand Genomics terminology, applicability to primary care, the importance of taking a family history, examples of relevant conditions that we encounter in a GP surgery and about where and when to refer, particularly for genetic tests.

As your 'average' frontline GP and paramedics, co-hosts Munir Adam and Claire Green speak to the experts, to whom we are grateful:

• Dr Angela Brady, Consultant Clinical Geneticist North West Thames Regional Genetics Service, Joint Clinical Education Lead North Thames Genomic Medicine Service Alliance.
• Dr Faye Dannhauser, Portfolio GP and GP Lead for the North Thames Genetic Medicine Alliance.

SPONSOR: The Genomics mini-series was sponsored by, and co-produced with the North Thames Genomics Medicine Service.
