Genomic sequencing technology allows for identification of reproductive couples with an increased chance, as compared with that in the general population, of having a child with an autosomal recessive or X-linked genetic condition. As reproductive genetic carrier screening is being implemented inconstantly throughout Europe, it is time to review and discuss where the main medical, technical and ethical stakes stand.
Chaired by Laurent PASQUIER & Eva VAN STEIJVOORT.
