Genetics is big business, but you can also pay privately to have your own genome sequenced, and even printed out as a picture for your wall. Come and meet genomic scientists, and find out how samples of blood and saliva travel around the world, and end up as predictions for health and disease. Handle a fragile gene chip and ponder what you’d want to know about your future.
