Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive prenatal screening for fetal aneuploidy, 2016 update: a position statement of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics.
Anthony R. Gregg,Brian G. Skotko,Judith Benkendorf,Kristin G. Monaghan,Komal Bajaj,Robert G. Best,Susan Klugman,Michael S. Watson +7 more
TL;DR: This statement sets forth a new framework for NIPS that is supported by information from validation and clinical utility studies, and Laboratories are encouraged to meet the needs of providers and their patients by delivering meaningful screening reports and to engage in education.
Journal ArticleDOI
The state of the medical geneticist workforce: findings of the 2003 survey of American Board of Medical Genetics certified geneticists.
TL;DR: The state of the medical geneticist workforce: Findings of the 2003 survey of American Board of Medical Genetics certified geneticists suggest that the number of geneticists in the United States is declining.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive Prenatal Screening for Fetal Aneuploidy, 2016 Update: A Position Statement of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics
Anthony R. Gregg,Brian G. Skotko,Judith Benkendorf,Kristin G. Monaghan,Komal Bajaj,Robert G. Best,Susan Klugman,Michael S. Watson +7 more
TL;DR: The introduction in 2011 of noninvasive prenatal screening (NIPS) that used cell-free DNA derived from the placenta and circulating in maternal blood led to rapid advancements in genomic technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reporting genomic secondary findings: ACMG members weigh in
Maren T. Scheuner,Jane Peredo,Judith Benkendorf,Bruce Bowdish,Gerald L. Feldman,Lynn D Fleisher,John J. Mulvihill,Michael S. Watson,Gail E. Herman,James P. Evans +9 more
TL;DR: The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics should update a list of genes to be assessed when clinical genome-scale sequencing is performed, and reporting of secondary findings should be optional.
Journal ArticleDOI
The medical genetics workforce: an analysis of clinical geneticist subgroups.
TL;DR: Although many geneticists practice as generalist geneticists, this study provides an evidence base for distinguishing clinically relevant subgroups of geneticists and describing their professional characteristics and clinical practices.
