Our new free debate kit

The Big Data Debate Kit discusses whether we should sequence the genomes of one million people, to find out more about living longer and healthier lives.

The aim of this educational resource is to explore the social, ethical and political issues behind mass genome sequencing. It contains 8 debate cards outlining the opinions of fictional characters with an interest in a human genome sequencing, and teacher notes to help you to carry out the lesson effectively.

We have sent our first batch of debate kits, but we still have more to be sent to different schools in the UK and Ireland. Click here for more information and to sign up to receive your free copy!
