Article Synopsis
  • Human genomics integrates research, clinical care, public health, and consumer testing, but legal frameworks vary significantly across these areas.
  • Conflicts may arise when genomic practices overlap, particularly concerning consent, liability, analysis quality, and privacy protection.
  • The paper proposes a unified legal approach to resolve these conflicts while ensuring individuals' rights and interests are safeguarded in translational genomics.
