Designed in collaboration with 23andMe and Pathway Genomics, the Impact of Personal Genomics (PGen) Study serves as a model for academic-industry partnership and provides a longitudinal dataset for studying psychosocial, behavioral, and health outcomes related to direct-to-consumer personal genomic testing (PGT). Web-based surveys administered at three time points, and linked to individual-level PGT results, provide data on 1,464 PGT customers, of which 71% completed each follow-up survey and 64% completed all three surveys. The cohort includes 15.7% individuals of non-white ethnicity, and encompasses a range of income, education, and health levels. Over 90% of participants agreed to re-contact for future research.
该研究由 23andMe 和 Pathway Genomics 合作设计,是学术与产业合作的典范,为研究与直接面向消费者的个人基因组检测(PGT)相关的社会心理、行为和健康结果提供了一个纵向数据集。该研究通过三次基于网络的调查,并与个人 PGT 结果相链接,共收集了 1464 名 PGT 客户的数据,其中 71%的客户完成了每次随访调查,64%的客户完成了所有三次调查。该队列包括 15.7%的非白种人群体,涵盖了不同的收入、教育和健康水平。超过 90%的参与者同意在未来的研究中重新联系。
