Abstract:In the context of the systematic genotyping of UK Biobank’s participants and the piloting of non-invasive pre-natal testing within the screening pathway for Down syndrome, this paper considers the plausibility, basis, scope, and weight of the claim that participants and patients have a right to know as well as a right not to know the results of the genetic analysis undertaken. It also considers the possible relevance to these issues of the landmark decision of the UK Supreme Court in Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board.
