Very pleased to share our latest publication where we identified and assessed decision support tools for parents of children with chronic illness. Still lots of work needed in the pediatric, decision-making space! authors.elsevier.com/a/1gjQA…

This @GIMJournal paper by @erin_turbitt develops a new measure of personal utility of genomic findings. The lack of a validated patient-reported outcome measure of personal utility has so far impeded assessment of patient-perceived value of genomics. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

“PPH needs public health ethics as well as clinical ethics." Thank you @biomedethics for a wonderful webinar discussing the role of ethical thinking in the use of precision public health! Critical thinking about values that ground PPH is so important to the growth of the field.
