Genomic uncertainty and genetic counsellors' professional authority.

Sociology of health & illness - 1 Mar 2023

Kaufman Rebecca, Timmermans Stefan, Raz Aviad

Abstract excerpt

Genomic tests regularly produce Variants of Uncertain Significance (VUS), mutations of which currently little is known but may turn out to be disease-causing. The communication of such variants in the United States is typically delegated to genetic counsellors. Based on in-depth interviews, we examined this communication as an indicator of the genetic counsellor's professional status: did they take a subordinate...
