Professor Jim Flett Wilson Over the last decade Jim led two large genetic epidemiology studies in Orkney and Shetland. These platform resources for health research benefit from rich phenotyping, deep genotyping, a tissue biobank and prospective follow up through record linkage and have contributed to the discovery of over 1000 novel associations. Hailing from Orkney with Shetland connections Jim is very familiar within the islands and the huge health study undertaken here.
