The relevance of the article is due, on the one hand, to the active introduction of genomic research technologies into everyday life and the accumulation of a significant amount of genetic information while providing medical care and other genome screening and sequencing services by private and state organizations. On the other hand, it is relevant due to the beginning of the implementation of large-scale government projects to create an information-analytical system for storing and processing genetic data. In these circumstances, the issues of developing an effective legal regulation of creating and functioning of human genome databases are of particular importance.
Aim: to study the requirements of international and national standards for statutory regulation of relations connected to genomic researches, as well as to collecting, processing, storing and using genetic information.
Methods: in the study formal logical and general scientific methods of scientific knowledge are used; private scientific (comparative legal, formal dogmatic) methods are used.
Results: Based on these requirements, the current national legislation is assessed, an urgent need is defined to adopt a special federal law on the protection of genomic information, which enshrines the necessary rules on procedures for forming relevant databases, the procedure for storing and using the resulting genomic information, as well as the legal regime of the information contained in the database.
Studying the practice of crime investigation indicates the need to use a forensic registration system, including a database of DNA profiles of human biological material (genomic registration) in order to increase the effectiveness of the fight against crime.
Aim: the analysis of regulatory issues, technical support of genomic registration, as well as the problems of the organizational nature of the functioning of DNA counts alongside with developing ways to solve them.
Methods: empirical methods of observation, comparison, description, interpretation, interpretation of legal norms, supported by the results of a survey of Ufa residents.
Results: this research of various approaches, including the attitude of various segments of the population towards the idea of universal genomic registration of citizens of the Russian Federation, makes it possible to develop ways to improve the quality of detection and investigation of crimes through the thoughtful organization of forming, accumulating, processing and using a system of universal genomic registration of the population of Russia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
