The only Black Genetic Counsellor in the room, Sasha Henriques

Sasha is a principal genetic counsellor and PhD candidate who's passion for inclusivity in the field of genetics lead her work across the world. 

She has too often been the only Black Genetic counsellor in many of the spaces that she has been in and has taken the initiative to set up Genetics Engage to encourage greater inclusivity in the field. 

We discuss her journey into the field, her experiences as a Black woman in this space. We also take about the genetics of race and what that means for our day to day experiences.
