Views and Voices Reporting Genetics and Genomics - Briefing Book

About

The goals of the Views & Voices - Reporting Genetics and Genomics session are to bring together reporters and experts in the field of genomics and precision health as well as members of the public to examine how the public views and consumes news related to genomics and precision health and how reporters cover topics in these fields. The goal is also to explore management of the perceived crisis of credibility in genomics and precision health by reporters.

Briefing Book- Oct 5 Workshop on Genomics Workforce Diversity

About

The Roundtable on Genomics and Precision Health hosted a virtual public workshop that examined the current state of diversity (e.g., racial, ethnic) of the genetics and genomics workforce, structural issues that have contributed to diversity challenges, and potential steps forward. Workshop discussions addressed topics such as the impact of racism on the culture of the fields of genetics and genomics; how the genetics/genomics workforce is or is not uniquely affected by structural racism; and the relationship between the lack of diversity in the workforce and patient access to genetic services.

Panelists were asked to discuss structural challenges impeding workforce diversity in clinical genetics/genomics, current efforts to improve workforce diversity in the field, how those efforts might improve access for patients from underrepresented groups, and opportunities for professional societies and associations to better support the training and integration of providers from diverse backgrounds. A proceedings in brief of the presentations and discussions at the workshop was prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
