Lluís Quintana-Murci is a professor at the College de France in Paris where he holds the Chair of Human Genomics and Evolution. He also directs the Human Evolutionary Genetics Unit at the Institut Pasteur.
I talk to him about:

- What this means for a future of personalised nutrition and precision medicine
- & much more
