The evolution of genetic counselling: Conversations with the people who were there

Prof Christine Patch interviews genetic counsellors Lauren Kerzin-Storrar, Penny Guilbert, Chris Barnes, Heather Skirton, Diane Stirling, Anna Middleton, Georgina Hall, Laura Boyes and Vishakha Tripathi, who began their respective careers over a period of four decades, from the 1970s to the 2010s, about their recollections of the origins and evolution of the genetic counselling profession in the United Kingdom, which they had an active hand in.

All of these videos can be viewed, and downloaded (read a how-to guide), on Vimeo.
