Genetic Testing Oversight

Genetic Alliance Webinar
Description
The final webinar in a series specially designed for Genetics Day on the Hill 2010 participants that will explore the current oversight mechanism for genetic diagnostic tests, details of the voluntary Genetic Testing Registry as announced by the National Institutes of Health in March of this year, and the role a mandatory registry would have in establishing a forward-looking oversight system. Leading consultants in advanced diagnostics regulation will discuss proposed legislative vehicles, including the Genomics and Personalized Medicine Act, HR 5440, to achieving oversight, including a mandatory registry, that is flexible, transparent, and balances safety, innovation, ethical and social issues, viability, and the risks and benefits of improved health.Presenters:
