Polygenic risk scores (PRS) provide an estimate of the genetic contribution to health conditions. Despite increasing clinical translation, healthcare providers (HPs) report a lack of PRS knowledge, representing a major barrier to safe and effective use in practice. This study aimed to i) identify HPs learning and resource needs for PRS delivery, and ii) outline strategies to best engage clinicians in PRS education, with findings used to inform the co-design of an educational program. To ensure i...
