@NadiaGilchrist1 @chatbiology Hi Nadia. Our teacher conference is every two years - so it will be summer term of 2026.

@chatbiology @AdelphiGenetics When is the next teacher conference @AdelphiGenetics@chatbiology

Come to our chat tonight where we share some questions posed at the @AdelphiGenetics teacher conference. 8:30pm right here!

One of the very best books I read over the last 12-18 months or so was Greg Radick's brilliant "Disputed inheritance", here's a brief Amazon review saying why anyone truly interested in the origins of genetics, and its potential futures, should read it amazon.co.uk/review/RU1H1Z6…

The latest edition of Adelphi Review is now available on our website and contains a full report on our Annual Conference. adelphigenetics.org/wp-content/upl…

📢We are delighted to announce that the 9th ESHG Cardiac Genetics Course will be held from Saturday 15th March – Tuesday 18th March 2025. For information on how to register and course details, check out: mrcc.org.uk/events/9th-esh… @eshgsociety @GeneticBill

The Adelphi Genetics Forum Conference 2024 was on the theme of ‘Progress and challenges implementing genomics into practice and society’. Recordings of the speakers are available to view online: adelphigenetics.org/events/annual-…

“Radick recounts every twist and turn of the debate, and his account of the Bateson-Weldon stand-off is surely definitive”: Lorraine Daston on DISPUTED INHERITANCE in the London Review of Books – lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/…

Thank you @Ddysmo. What an excellent day, the @AdelphiGenetics meeting at @royalsociety. Some really thoughtful talks marking 20 years since publication of completion of the Human Genome Project. A super-sharp narrative from @stevesturdy from Edinburgh on the political agendas around UK genomics over the last decade. Also Andrew Read (of Strachan and Read!) on the technology journey, Bill Newman @GeneticBill on rolling out of pharmacogenomics and Mike Parker @michaelethox on the ethical journey of genomic expansion.

“Beyond the authorized version of the history of genetics another option emerges.” | Gregory Radick explains why the mistaken idea that genes determine character traits was allowed to persist. iai.tv/articles/your-…
