Genetic analysis of metabolic polymorphisms in molecular epidemiological studies: social and ethical implications.

IARC scientific publications - 1 Jan 1999

Hainaut P, Vähäkangas K

Abstract excerpt

The use of genetic biomarkers in epidemiological studies raises specific social and ethical issues related to the selection of molecular markers and methods of analysis, obtaining participation, the storage of biological samples and their linkage with individual data, the disclosure of information and the publication of results. Several of these issues are similar to those associated with the use of any type of...
