Watch the PGx educational video from St Jude's Children's Research Hospital

Protocol investigators and family members of patients from St Jude's Family Advisory Council discuss the PG4KDS pharmacogenetics implementation project in a video - we have added a link to the video on our website under the Outreach tab: "PGEN4Kids Study Information".

In the video, Mary Relling provides an introduction to pharmacogenetics and the PG4KDS project, and then the group discuss important issues including:

• can genetic variants that give information about drug response be separated from those that give information about disease risk?
• why are genetic tests different from other clinical tests? 
• the advantages and disadvantages of placing genetic results in the medical record
