University of Oxford Genome 100,000 Project

2 Replies

We have been approached by researchers from University of Oxford who are looking to interview people who have been invited to take part in the Genome 100,000 Project (including those who have declined to take part in the project as they felt at the time it was not for them). The researcher would like to interview you about your experiences, feelings and thoughts about genomic research, with a view (with your permission) to putting extracts from the interview on their website Healthtalk.org (in video, audio or written only format). If you are interested in participating then please in the first instance email r.harris@heartrhythmalliance.org with your authority to share your details with the researcher.

There is a website which could be helpful if you are looking for more information on this study,: phc.ox.ac.uk/research/healt...

A worthwhile project. I did the one about AF many years ago . You just need an hour or so of your time to talk to a camera about your experience.

Please note that this particular research is aimed at people who were initially invited to take part in the Genome 100,000 Project. The interview will be to discuss your experiences.
