Popis: Genomic medicine has the potential to become a standard practice in health care. However, despite the advances in this domain, health-care professionals seem to lack the required knowledge and understanding in order to explain the related technologies and their value to laypeople. In this chapter, we present key findings in order to highlight some of the educational gaps. The conclusions of the various studies are critically evaluated in an attempt to raise awareness of future educational needs.
