Ethical issues in genetic research: disclosure and informed consent

by: Philip R. Reilly, Mark R. Boshar, Steven H. Holtzman
Nature Genetics, Vol. 15, No. 1. (01 January 1997), pp. 16-20.

X Abstract

As research to correlate genetic status with predisposition to disease has accelerated, so has the concern that participation in such studies creates the risk of genetic discrimination and emotional distress.

We describe the broad approach that we have taken in regard to disclosure and consent in gene mapping studies.
