DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER GENETIC TESTING: ETHICAL-LEGAL PERSPECTIVES AND PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS

1 Mar 2010

Abstract excerpt

The post-genomics era and the public's growing ‘genetic curiosity’, together with the commercial offering of Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) genetic tests, merit particular consideration with regard to the consumption of these tests. DTC genetic tests are becoming increasingly prevalent, emerging as a fashionable, widely used health-assessment instrument. While viewed by some as an enabling tool for exercising one's...
