Kerr S, Klaric L, Muckian M, Johnston K, Drake C, Halachev M, et al.
Am J Hum Genet . 2025 Mar; PMID: 40088892
The benefits of returning clinically actionable genetic results to participants in research cohorts are accruing, yet such a genome-first approach is challenging. Here, we describe the implementation of return of...
