Genetics Program
Some families have a high cancer risk due to inherited genetic factors. Genetic information can help these families better understand their risk for cancer, and what screening and prevention efforts will be most effective. Genetic counseling and testing can help develop a more complete picture of a family's cancer risk, giving family members important information - and peace of mind.
The Humphrey Cancer Genetics Program was created in 1998 to provide risk assessment, genetic counseling and genetic testing services for families seeking information about their cancer risk.
