Earlier in the year, Julia Vitarello, Founder and CEO of Mila's Miracle Foundation, hosted an episode of our podcast, where she shared her daughter, Mila's story, and discussed challenges for those living with a rare condition and the work being carried out across the genomics ecosystem to support them.

Genomics England
Biotechnology Research
We’re working to enable faster and deeper genomic diagnosis & research, to bring genomic healthcare to all who need it.
About us
Genomics England works with the NHS to bring forward the use of genomic healthcare and research in Britain to help people live longer, healthier lives. Genomics is a ground-breaking area of medicine that uses our unique genetic code to help diagnose, treat and prevent illnesses. Thanks to advanced technology, scientists can now compare many people’s genetic code to make new discoveries that continually improve genomic healthcare. In 2013, Genomics England and the NHS launched the 100,000 Genomes Project, demonstrating how genomics insights can help doctors across the NHS, and building a foundation for the future by assembling a unique dataset. Genomics England is now supporting the NHS to deliver genomic testing for patients as part of routine healthcare, and providing the health data and technology that researchers need to make new discoveries and create more effective, targeted medicines. We work with thousands of people – patients, doctors and scientists – to increase our collective knowledge and enable faster and deeper genomic research, to bring genomic healthcare to all who need it.
