Secretary's Advisory Committee on Genetics, Health, and Society (SACGHS)
  OBA manages the Secretary's Advisory Committee on Genetics, Health, and Society (SACGHS), which advises the Secretary of Health and Human Services on the broad range of human health and societal issues raised by the development and use and potential misuse of genetic technologies.  
  Extraordinary scientific advances in biology, human genetics, and genomics are speeding the development of new technologies to predict, diagnose, and treat disease. These technologies, however, have medical, ethical, legal, and social implications and their integration into clinical and public health practice must be done with great care.
