Privacy and Confidentiality: Ensuring the protection of personal genetic information from unauthorized access and use. Discrimination: Preventing genetic discrimination in employment, insurance, and other areas of life. Informed Consent: Guaranteeing that individuals are fully informed about the potential risks and benefits before undergoing genetic testing. Psychological Impact: Addressing the emotional and psychological effects of genetic test results on individuals and their families.
