ELSI • GC Exchange, hosted by The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine, is an educational series designed for genetic counselors. This series provides a unique opportunity to earn Category 1 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) while exploring various Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues (ELSI) pertinent to genetic counseling.

In this talk, attendees learned to compare different definitions of clinical utility and personal utility, as well as explain how different understandings of personal utility may view pharmacogenomics for depression.
