Revealing the results of whole-genome sequencing and whole-exome sequencing in research and clinical investigations: some ethical issues: Table 1

Abstract excerpt

The introduction of new sequencing technologies whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and whole-exome sequencing (WES) that are much less finely targeted than previous genetic tests has resulted in ethical debate about what should be done with clinically significant findings that may arise during the sequencing process. In this piece we argue that, in addition to whether the finding has been intentionally sought or...
