Illusions of scientific legitimacy: misrepresented science in the direct-to-consumer genetic-testing marketplace.

Amy B Vashlishan Murray1, Michael J Carson, Corey A Morris, Jon Beckwith.   

Abstract

Marketers of genetic tests often openly or implicitly misrepresent the utility of genetic information. Scientists who are well aware of the current limitations to the utility of such tests are best placed to publicly counter misrepresentations of the science.
