AIM AND SCOPE OF THE STUDY Sample Clauses

AIM AND SCOPE OF THE STUDY. The aim of this study is to define normative criteria that should govern the access to large scale applications of genetics (the study of heredity) and genomics (the study of genes and their function)6 in the field of predictive medicine, notably DTC genetic tests. In doing so, the study primarily focuses on the Netherlands. In this thesis I will examine the role and the responsibilities of the Dutch State regarding the regulation of genetic screening and formulate normative criteria that should govern access to and supply of genetic screening, with DTC genetic tests as a case study. Formulating normative criteria according to genetic screening requires, first of all, the clarification of the responsibility of the State with respect to self-determination and health protection. In identifying the relevant normative criteria, the focus is not only confined to the existing 6 WHO 2002, p. 203-204. 1 principles, European law (both legal instruments stemming from the Council of Europe and of the European Union) and legislation in other European countries. In order to answer the central question, ‘what are the normative criteria for the access to and supply of genetic screening from constitutional and European law perspectives’, the following questions will be addressed:
