If/Then: Research findings to help us navigate complex issues in business, leadership, and society
One underappreciated fact about the explosion in genetic databases, like consumer sites that provide information about ancestry and health, is that they unlock valuable insights not only into an individual's past and future, but also for that individual's entire family.This raises serious concerns about privacy for people who have never submitted their genetic information for analysis, yet share much the same code as one who did.This week on If/Then, we're sharing an interview from The Future of Everything with Stanford GSB Professor Kuang Xu. Xu is an expert in how genetic information can and should be used. He says that the DNA problem weighs heavily on privacy experts in fields ranging from law and engineering to public health and criminal justice. The fundamental question is: Can we create methods for accessing genetic data while maximizing the privacy of all involved?The Future of Everything is Produced by Stanford Engineering.

This week, a data breach was disclosed by 23andMe, affecting 6.9 million users and compromising their genetic data information. The incident raises significant concerns about data privacy and security. It's important to note that while some perceive this as a violation of HIPAA, it typically doesn't apply to direct-to-consumer genetic testing services like 23andMe, as they don't involve covered entities such as physicians. This leaves a gap in privacy protection, and alternative legal frameworks, such as those enforced by the Federal Trade Commission, may come into play. However, actions against direct-to-consumer genetic testing companies by the FTC have been rare. The breach highlights the need for increased awareness and potentially new laws and regulations to safeguard sensitive genetic data in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Infertility. It's real. It affects 10-15% of couples in the US. After a thorough investigation, 30% of couples will be left without an identifiable cause for their infertility. This has been termed unexplained infertility. While traditionally this may have been considered a reassuring result, new data is raising the yellow flag of caution in these patients. Research has now established the link between infertility and some potential future negative health outcomes. As “next generation“ genetic tests become more integrated into clinical practice, new data (released ahead of print on March 16, 2023 in the New England Journal of Medicine) has revealed some life-changing realities for couples struggling with unexplained infertility. In this episode, we will highlight the advances in genetic medicine and summarize the key findings of this eye-opening new publication.
Throughout the U.S., usually right after a baby is born, a doctor or nurse takes a pinprick of blood from the newborn — often from its cute, little feet — to screen for diseases or genetic defects. These blood tests are mandatory and create a health and genetic database. But who gets access to that genetic information, and for what purpose, is at the center of several legal fights. In New Jersey, the Office of the Public Defender recently sued the state testing program after police allegedly used a newborn’s blood sample to help them obtain a warrant for the father’s DNA. “Marketplace Tech’s” Kimberly Adams spoke with reporter Nikita Biryukov at the New Jersey Monitor, who broke the story.
