Description
Precision medicine and genomics are transforming traditional healthcare approaches at a rapid pace [1]. In spite of major
technological progress being made in genomics, a genomic divide is emerging between the developed and developing countries [2]. This is partly because of the limited genomic literacy amongst healthcare professionals and a scarcity of available genomics workforce that potentially deters from prescription and widespread adoption of genomic testing. We aim to help reduce this genomic divide by proposing a genomic test report design for clinicians that incorporates user-centered design principles.
