The ability to identify genetic defects before implantation, to diagnose fetal abnormalities and to introduce screening programmes means that genetic testing now has a major role in preventive medicine. The 57th RCOG Study Group brought together a range of experts to examine the many clinical, ethical and societal issues around reproductive genetics. This book presents the findings of the Study Group, covering a range of disorders, advances in treatments and techniques, as well as the importance of educating the public and the potential ethical dilemmas that may arise as a result of new scientific findings and new methodologies. 606 $aHuman reproduction$vCongresses 606 $aHuman genetics$vCongresses 615 0$aHuman reproduction 615 0$aHuman genetics 676 $a613.94 702 $aKehoe$b Sean 702 $aChitty$b Lyn 702 $aHomfray$b Tessa 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463948303321 996 $aReproductive genetics$92491004 997 $aUNINA
