| Research Abstract |
We conducted the following three studies on commercialized" predissposition genetic testing".(1) Study on regulatory frameworks in Europe, USA, China and Japan.(2) Interviews with the experts in genetic testing, commercial companies, doctors selling those tests and patients or users who bought the tests.(3) Agenda-frame analysis of the Japanese newspaper articles dealing with" genetic testing". There is a difference of perceptions and evaluation of those tests between experts in genetics on the one hand and doctors and users who sell and buy the tests on the other. The current Japanese regulatory framework is not desireable both for commercial companies and users.
