Biography

Zosia Miedzybrodzka is Professor of Medical Genetics at the University of Aberdeen. She is also honorary consultant clinical geneticist and Service Clinical Director of Genetics for NHS Grampian (comprising Clinical Services and diagnostic DNA and cytogenetics laboratories), and co-director of the University of Aberdeen Centre for Genome-enabled Biology and Medicine.

Her areas of work place her on the interface between Clinical Practice and Research. her interests lie in the application of genetic techology to medicine. Current projects focus on genetic biomarkers for treatment response in gastro-oesophageal cancer, genetics and care in Huntington's disease, improving delivery of familial hypercholesterolaemia services. She is lead for NHS implementation within the Scottish Genomes Project. Currently she is Chair of the Scottish Clinical Genetics Forum and specialty adviser to the Chief Medical Officer for clinical genetics.
