Abstract:

There is a dual, multidirectional trend of active development of genomic technologies in the Russian medical sphere and government policy, which limits editing of the human genome and regulates diagnostics and therapy using human genes. These circumstances determine the need for a deeper study of the prospective legal regulation and its foundation, the conceptual and categorical framework. This article studies the category of “genomic technologies in medical activities” in legal and research texts identifying their key attributes. The proposed definition of “genomic technologies” in medical activity can contribute to modern legal research, while its legislating may bring order to the actions of various legal subjects in the relevant sphere of public relations.
