In this NPR TED Radio Hour episode, our senior genetic counselor and project manager Bethany Zettler helps unpack how families interpret and react to genetic findings and the difficult decisions that can follow. The episode also discusses the growing use of DNA sequencing in healthy newborns to identify hidden disease risks, as Dr. Robert C. Green and Dr. Lainie Friedman Ross explore both the potential benefits and the ethical challenges of knowing a child’s genetic information early in life.
