GWAS, Serendipity, and Female Leadership with Dr Gosia Trynka

Dr Gosia Trynka is a group leader at the Sanger Institute and Experimental Science Director at Open Targets. Her group works on immune genomics as they study how human genetic variation impacts the immune system and predisposes people to develop autoimmune diseases. In today's episode we hear not only about this science, but also about her transition into leadership and the people she has held as role models along the way.
