Science for everyone
Part of the same organisation as the Wellcome Sanger Institute, funded by Wellcome, and based on the Wellcome Genome Campus, UK, our programme is focussed on learning, training, and engagement with genomics.
Wellcome Connecting Science’s mission is to enable everyone to explore genomic science and its impact on research, health and society.

Grateful for conferences that use a hybrid format. Today I got to be at the Mutational Scanning Symposium where I just listened to an amazing keynote lecture.
