Sanger Science
22 October 2024Meet the next generation of genomic scientists who are benefiting from the Sanger Prize. Damilola Gbore won the Prize in 2023, after first applying in 2020. He joined the Parasites and Microbes Programme to work alongside Ewan Harrison’s research group. During his three-month placement, he analysed virus sequencing data, learning the techniques that researchers can use to diagnose and track viruses in humans.
