Experts give top concerns on genetic testsWritten by John Donnelly on February 2, 2012 In the final session today before the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues, Chair Dr. Amy Gutmann asked all the experts who presented information to talk about their greatest concern with genetic tests.
