What is the APOL1 Study?

This study evaluates views concerning providing genetic testing information about the Apolipoprotein (APOL1) gene mutation to patients and family members who may be at risk for kidney disease. The goal of the study is to address a bioethics concern, specifically to gain community input on the question of genetic testing for kidney disease risk in African American communities.
