How Race, Ethnicity, and Ancestry Information is Used in Genetic Diagnostics: One Lab's Perspective
Dee McKnight, PhD
ADWG ELSIconversations Session 2 - May 6, 2022
Question: What is the most important information, conceptually, for clinical genetics professionals to do their jobs well? Is the information always necessary; if not, when is it critical vs. extraneous? When is it potentially harmful?
Goal: Distill the most relevant information among population descriptors that serves a purpose in the clinical curation pipeline, or other clinical genetics work
