Abstract:
We do not intend to specify definite proposals as regards the scientific responsibility of genetic practice. This field of predicting the development of a pathology in an individual and family history requires reflection on the perception of personal risk, of the importance and reassurance deriving from a personal history, and of the benefits sharing knowledge and care with the clinical and scientific world. We evaluate the possibility to expand a reflection on sign-possibility and sign-expression of disease that could develop a wider comparison with personal freedom when confronted by genetic, philosophical and historical determinations. A parallel and preliminary consideration is made of guidelines for diagnostic and therapeutic behavior.
