Genetics Unzipped
Every story starts somewhere. Ours begins with a simple question: How do we make genetics understandable, useful, and personal for everyone?
At Cambridge Genetics, we believe the power of DNA should not be locked away in scientific papers or hidden behind jargon. It should be something you can see, explore, and use to make more informed choices about your health and future. That’s why we’ve created Genetics Unzipped—our new blog where we’ll pull back the curtain on the fascinating world of genetics and show you how it connects to everyday life.
What you can expect here
This space is where science meets clarity. We’ll be sharing:
Simple explanations of complex ideas – breaking down DNA, genes, and risk scores into plain English.
Latest discoveries – what new research means for you and your family.
Behind-the-scenes insights – how we’re building tools that make genetic data more human-friendly.
Practical stories – from nutrition to wellbeing, we’ll explore how genetics plays a role in the choices we make every day.
Why “unzipped”?
DNA is famously shaped like a double helix—a twisted ladder that unzips whenever your cells need to read or copy information. To us, “unzipping” also means opening up this complex science, making it accessible and meaningful to people everywhere.
Join us
This is the first step in what we hope will be an ongoing conversation. Whether you’re curious about your own DNA, passionate about health innovation, or just love learning, Genetics Unzipped is here for you.
So, here we go—the start of something exciting. Stay tuned for our next post where we’ll dive into the question: What exactly is a genetic risk score, and why does it matter?
Welcome to Genetics Unzipped. Let’s explore the code of life, together.
