JULY 15: Your Health Matters talks Genetics, Ancestry and Family History

What can your DNA reveal about your health? How does your family history influence your future wellness? And what role does ancestry play in understanding disease prevention and personalized healthcare?

Join Brenda Waters, host of Your Health Matters, on Wednesday, July 15th at 6 pm, for a compelling conversation exploring the fascinating connection between Genetics, Ancestry & Family History.

This edition features renowned experts Dr. Jabari Johnson, PhD, and Dr. Leanne Woods-Burnham, who will discuss how advances in genetic research are transforming the way we understand inherited health risks, ancestry, precision medicine, and the importance of knowing your family's medical history. Listeners will gain practical insights into how genetics can empower individuals and families to make more informed healthcare decisions.

They will take your calls and questions live at 404-880-9255. Your Health Matters with Brenda Waters is made possible by the Center For Cancer Research And Therapeutic Development at Clark Atlanta University (CCRTD) and the National Institutes of Health.
