    Abstract

    Project Narrative. Advances in psychiatric, neurologic and behavioral (PNB) genetics have brought the prospect of predictive and diagnostic genomic testing for many PNB conditions closer to clinical application. The potential for such findings to profoundly affect core elements of personhood?including identity, perceived responsibilities, and life trajectories?makes it essential to understand the impact of such information on individuals and families. Our Center will conduct innovative research regarding these issues, consider their clinical and normative implications, and help to train the next generation of ELSI researchers.
