Funded Activity Summary

Commercial risk management in the health environment: exploring the legal and ethical boundaries of consent in genetic diagnostic research. There is little empirical research on consent in clinical research, particularly genetic diagnostic testing, despite its key significance to risk management in medical research practice. This study analyses consent procedures of clinicians and researchers for individual research participants. Key clinicians and Laboratory Heads engaged in genetic diagnostic research will be interviewed and consent forms assessed. This will produce identification of trends in consent procedures and baseline information for national studies. The significance is the priority accorded genetic research, the need for adequate risk management in that context and development of optimal consent procedures and policy at State and National levels.
