Abstract

The article presents a case for responsive justice in genetics research with marginalized communities. In doing so, it considers the application of John Rawls' concept of distributive justice in genetic medicine and research. Standard research models use distributive justice in designing and conducting research. However, this approach often excludes underserved and marginalized populations in the process. Recognition, redistribution and responsibility are the guiding principles to creating responsive justice in genetics research with marginalized communities.
