Abstract
The tri-ministrial guideline on human genetic/genomic research (Ethics guidelines for human genome/genetic analysis research) was revised in 2013. In this paper, the main points of the changes are summarized. This guideline was originally drafted more than 10 years ago, amid peopleʼs wariness of human genetic analysis. Rationalization of the guideline, in response to the past and possible evolution of research methodologies, had been expected. Furthermore, increased disparities between the guideline and other national ethical guidelines were also points of discussion. Although these problems remain unresolved even after the amendment work, there are some points of amendments to be noted. Especially, enlarged responsibilities of researchers and research institutes concerning treatment of genetic information/data warrant attention.
