By Beth Kling - October 22, 2013

If you have a known genetic mutation or are considering genetic testing for cancer, you may face discrimination by employers and insurers.

Watch it here! (The first part is audio only; video kicks in after about 5 minutes.)

Sandra Park represented the plaintiffs in the case against Myriad Genetics and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
