Patient Diversity and Genetic Databases

Advances in genetic research have allowed us to develop testing, treatment, and prevention strategies based upon patients’ unique genetic characteristics, medical history, and environment. But what happens when patients whose ancestry or ethnicity was not represented in the research dataset are seeking care? This can lead to deepening and concerning health inequities. In this episode, we’ll discuss these health equity concerns in genetic databases and their impact on underrepresented and mixed populations.
