Individual, Family, and Societal Dimensions of Genetic Discrimination: A Case Study Analysis
Lisa N. Geller,Joseph S. Alper,Paul R. Billings,Carol Isaacson Barash,Jonathan Beckwith,Marvin R. Natowicz +5 more
TL;DR: The increasing development and utilization of genetic tests will likely result in increased genetic discrimination in the absence of contravening measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromosome missegregation and trisomy 21 mosaicism in Alzheimer's disease.
Lisa N. Geller,Huntington Potter +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the presenilin proteins may be involved in mitosis and that FAD mutations in the presENilin genes may predispose to chromosome missegregation (nondisjunction), and suggest that trisomy 21 mosaicism may contribute to other forms of AD that are not caused by a presenILin mutation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic discrimination and screening for hemochromatosis.
Joseph S. Alper,Lisa N. Geller,Carol Isaacson Barash,Paul R. Billings,Vicki Laden,Marvin R. Natowicz +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that genetic discrimination is already a serious problem and that any proposed screening program for hemochromatosis or other genetic condition must consider and attempt to mitigate its effects.
