ELSI Network Meeting - September 2024

On Thursday 12 September 2024, the Australian ELSI Genomics Network held their third event for 2024, online via Zoom. The event was titled ‘'Direct-to-consumer' genetic tests - recent Australian research’. Australian consumers take a lot of so-called ‘direct to consumer’ genetic tests, which are tests taken for a variety of purposes, typically without oversight from a health professional. There are many unanswered and ongoing questions arising from these tests, including how they are being used by people affected by donor conception, and how their uptake is impacting professions like genetic counselling. Speaker Dr Giselle Newton spoke about her extensive experience conducting research with people who have engaged with direct-to-consumer genetic testing to access information about family, while Dr Cushla McKinney explored how the genetic counselling profession has responded to direct-to-consumer genetic testing. Both talks were then discussed with attendees, with Q&A moderated by ELSI Network coordinator Professor Ainsley Newson.
