Genomic research and incidental findings.

The Journal of law, medicine & ethics : a journal of the American Society of Law, Medicine & Ethics - 1 Jan 2008

Van Ness Brian

Abstract excerpt

The Human Genome Project showed that there is significant genetic variation within the population. Current research is accumulating large databases that may reveal genetic variations associated with disease or health risks, even if not intended as part of the study design. These incidental findings create legal, ethical, and financial challenges for researchers. Current federal and international guidelines are...
