To edit or not edit? Ordinary people have their say on genetics

Are there any circumstances under which a UK Government should consider changing the law to allow intentional genome editing of human embryos for serious genetic conditions?

Based on the feedback from members of the public we tried out 6 different ways of introducing the topic of genetics. The aim was to create fresh, informative, surprising and shareable bite-sized insights about DNA and genetics, all of which used everyday language – from gnomes to conspiracy theories. See if any of these help explain what the science is, and what it can do for you.

This is the title

Currently being trialled by genetic counsellors at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital in London, we created films that use the metaphor of music to describe genetics to patients from the Genomic Medicine Service.

Seeking Support for this Co-Operative

As we set out in our Lancet piece, every organisation operating within the field of genomics has the potential to either help or hinder its ability to deliver fair and equitable healthcare outcomes for all.  Just one slip up by one organisation, one badly orchestrated public engagement, one misstep, or an ill-advised communication could set the whole realm of genomics back decades simply inflaming the  distrust ordinary people already feel about genomic science, the scientists and their intentions.

To that end Only Human are seeking support from partners to build a co-operative.

The ask: support is offered into the project to operationalise it, fund the creative asset production and participate in (and gain from) the research.

The offer: everyone in the co-operative can use the creative assets with their own audiences. All assets are free to download and use. We will co-ordinate the research and offer ethical oversight to the project, as well as build and share the evidence-based that we collectively gather. This will then be available and free for anyone working in the genomics world to use.

The result: together we build an evidence base for communication with broad public audiences around genomics. We create the conditions so that more publics and patients are aware of what genomics is, thus opening up conversations that allow such audiences to put forward their voices to impact policy and shape the delivery of research and clinical practice. If more public audiences feel they have a vested interest in the science, then they are in a stronger position to have an opinion about it. Ultimately this means collectively sharing a mitigation against a public backlash – well, an informed public backlash is perfectly acceptable! but a knee-jerk response based on a perception that ‘genomics’ is based on ‘gnomes and economics’ (yes we have heard this in our research) may do more harm than good to the entire industry of genomics. Together we rectify the historic societal imbalance that currently blights genetic research outcomes and healthcare outcomes more generally.

Fear, distrust, and the hope for the better

Only Human has worked in collaboration with Jonathan Barnbrook, the celebrated award-winning film maker and graphic artist, to give voice to those seldom heard voices, not only on their feelings towards the genetic sciences poised to transform the future of medicine, but also on the need to find a way to make that science feel open, available, equitable and safe to them, as a matter of urgency.

We need to talk about science

How something ‘speaks’ to us plays a vital role in determining whether it sounds ‘for us’ or not.
Given how increasingly common genetic medicine will become in our lives, how it speaks to us becomes a critical tool in securing equality of health outcomes for all. So, in collaboration with Maslansky the language experts, we spoke to some non-scientific folks, especially those whose voices are seldom heard in the genomics conversation, to see how they feel towards the G Word and the kind of language commonly used to communicate it. The findings were both enlightening and sobering.
