Psychosocial aspects of advancing genetics
The great strides in advancing resolution in genetic diagnosis, largely due to molecular techniques with nextgen sequencing as trailblazer, is fuelling the debate on the discordance between resolution and precision. Somewhere between those two lies the holy grail of patient benefit. Do we need to find everything, and can we, already. And then, do we need to tell it all? Do our traditional values still hold? Screening and diagnostics are converging at high speed, but still not at the same point on the horizon, it seems.
