For some people, having their genes tested can be the very literal definition of knowledge being power. New research has found that one in 100 people with grandparents from Orkney have a gene variant that causes a higher risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. Planning is now underway for a small pilot trial in Westray.

A University of Aberdeen podcast, in this episode of ‘Inside the Headlines’ we hear from Zosia Miedzybrodzka, Professor of medical genetics at the University of Aberdeen and director of the NHS North Scotland Genetic Service; Jim Wilson, Professor of Human Genetics at the University of Edinburgh; and Bethan Davies, an Orcadian who has the gene variant.

Explored in this episode:

· What the research shows
