How to Become a Designer at Any Stage of Your Career by Ximena Vengoechea Thinking about a career in design but not sure where to start As a selftaught designer I came later to the game than most and I did my fair share of exploring before landing on design research The good news is no matter what stage of your career youre in or how far afield your background may seem if its something you aspire to its entirely possible to find your niche in the design world Heres my quick cheat sheet on setting yourself on the path to calling yourself a designer 1 Understand the Designer Landscape Newsflash Design isnt just about how a thing looks Your first step as you forge down the path toward a career in design is to understand the kinds of roles out there and decide what kind of designer you want to be UI UX visual interaction motion research Which do you want to pursue If those titles put you in a tizzy its time to understand them Theres no onesizefitsall primer but you can start here to get a taste of the differences If youve done your research and still arent entirely sure which role will best suit you fret not Ignore the job title for a minute and focus on the design challenges that are most intriguing to you Your focus will naturally narrow itself toward answering questions specific to one of those roles For example if your biggest questions are about why people use a thing or how a research role might be for you If youre still not finding an obvious fit know that the lines among these roles are changing every day so go for the design challenges you enjoy and see where you land from there 2 Make Make Make Practice Makes Perfect It used to be that there was no goto spot for design learning When I first started digging into design work there wasnt a strong centralized place for learning about it I spent a lot of timetoo muchculling and curating resources Lucky for you years later and this has changed You dont have to build your own curriculum anymore because there are plenty of great ones already out there Here are the top teachyourselftodesign resources to dive into Design Tuts This is the Holy Grail of practical design lessons covering everything from graphic design to Photoshop to web design to drawing theory Gibbon Gibbon has a wealth of playlists for learning Read up on storytelling and copywriting yes those are design skills too or create and share your own set of resources as you go on your own designlearning journey Hello Designer Remember when I said Id spent too much time curating resources for learning design when I first started out Enter Hello Designer the fruit of my labor I did the hard part of putting those resources together so now you dont have to Youre welcome 3 Think Like a Designer Thinking like a designer doesnt happen overnight or through a single tutorial Understanding mental models recognizing core interaction flows and design patterns these are skills that are built up over time So start now The more you know and can talk about design the more you build up an archive and a repertoire of knowledge to work through return to learn from and iterate on How do you learn how to think like a designer Scour websites like pttrns and lovely ui and start keeping track of what you like and dont like What details are you noticing and why Then start unpacking why you have those preferences If it sounds intimidating it shouldntits likely you already have an instinct for a particular aesthetic if youre interested in pursuing a career in design You probably have a sense of what makes a thing welldesigned or why certain designs workyou just have to learn to tap into that Cant pin it down Try this next step 4 Talk to Other Designers You will learn things you didnt know you didnt know by talking to other designers So find people in your network in the field or reach out to designers at companies you admire and see if you can pick their brains Ask them why they think something is good or bad or great Notice the details they notice and understand why Learn what they look for and where Understanding their thinking patterns and yours can help you improve your own skill collaborate with others and gain insight on the decisions distinguishing competing products in the design world Talking to designers is also a great way of building your vocabulary and beginning to formulate how to defend your or someone elses work Articulating why a design works or how it fails is a skill not everyone has Talking to people who live it day to day will help you exercise that muscle and stretch in the right direction Think of it as catching up on all the design critiques you missed by not going to art school 5 Take a Class in Person Dont have a bunch of designer friends you can start bugging You can also take a class There are many reasons taking a class in person will give you a boost and lots of local courses to choose from For inperson classes aim for subjects that are harder to learn and improve upon on your own Its easier to do solo reading on design thinking than to design and iterate on typefaces or app flows alonethose exercises may be better served when discussed in a larger group than created in a vacuum You can find classes at specialized schools like Tradecraft and General Assembly or check out continuing education classes and workshops offered at your local college The latter is often a better bang for your buck but do your research and see whats best for you 6 Get to Know People To be a good designer you have to understand people Get to know them and try to feel their pain points What are people motivated by How do they make decisions What delights them and frustrates them What experience are you creating for them and how will that make them feel No matter which part of the design process youre interested in all roads lead to designing an experience for people so make a point of learning everything you can about them Work on your listening skills and on building empathy for others to really get at the core of what people are feeling in different experiences Listen to those around you and try to feel what theyre feeling and why and think about how your designs might impact and improve their experiences The nice thing about empathy is you can build it any time anywhere so get started 7 Run With a Project This can be the scariest part but the best way to learn design at this point is to just start doing it So find a project and get going It doesnt have to be a paid gigin fact a side project is probably better at this stage in your design educationthe important thing is that you just start working on something Interested in visual design Design a logo Interaction Prototype an app Design things you will in six months be embarrassed to show anyone elseits OK thats part of the process Weve all been there Start with the basics and go 8 Show Your Work Dont be afraid to start sharing your designs even when you dont think theyre good enough Guess what They might not be But its important to get feedback on them to have someone tell you about an existing pattern you didnt know existed to join a community that will help you grow long down the road to show and share your work and iterate bit by bit with the help of others Over time youll notice that the feedback you seek changes too As you become more seasoned in your craft you may seek feedback that is more detailed and specific right down to the smallest pixel And you may find yourself more strongly debating or even discrediting feedback from others Thats great It means that you are transitioning into a being a designer with informed opinions confident in your talents and understanding of what makes a design successful If you feel strongly enough to defend your own designs youre likely at the point where you can help others in their design process too Repay the favor and give feedback to other designers just like they did for you The feedback cycle never ends no

5 Character Traits Taught By AllStar Cheerleading Because not only physical strength is gained Bailey Shaw Bailey Shaw Feb 29 2016 14k views The world of allstar cheerleading isnt always a walk in the park There are physical and mental challenges that come with it There is also a list of character traits that one naturally acquires when participating in the sport These traits dont only form a dignified athlete but an overall dignified person 1 Team Work A group of hard working individuals is placed on a mat for two minutes and 30 seconds In that time frame they have to come together to put on a flawless routine in order to succeed They literally have to lift one of their teammates up while they are down For 12 months each persons learns how to incorporate the meaning of me into the meaning of we Every cheer year the teams change and the cycle starts over again 2 Leadership While allstar cheerleading is a team sport there is s sense of individuality within it Every person on the team becomes a leader In areas where one is strong they need to lead and pull through for their team using their talent to the maximum Leadership is taught and practiced by each participant 3 Discipline A coach once told me discipline wins He even put it on a Tshirt for all of us This statement never made much sense until recently when I came across the quote Uncoachable kids make unemployable adults When one is an adolescent they are constantly learning from everything around them If they participate in a sport like allstar cheerleading yup a sport they are taught to obey rules and regulations If a cheerleader does not do something their coach instructs them to do it can result in danger and other negative outcomes This lesson stays with kids into adulthood when 4 Responsibility Each cheerleader is responsible for memorizing their track in a routine and performing it without error One is also responsible for attending practices multiple times a week as well as going into the gym to work on their skills in their own time As one gains responsibility thy also gain maturity each important traits when entering the work force 5 Sportsmanship I feel this trait is the first one taught when entering the world of allstar cheerleading Sportsmanship is a combination of multiple things including fairness respect ethics and a sense of fellowship when dealing with competitors The participants without question enjoy cheerleading for the sport it is and the memories they make because of it By being a fair competitor with your heart on the mat a sense of sportsmanship is automatically acquired Cover Image Credit Fierceboard Like Odyssey on Facebook When You Give A Girl A Pair Of Cleats Its more than a pair of shoes Hannah Cook Hannah Cook Feb 14 2017 445k views When you give a girl a pair of cleats you are giving her far more than a new pair of shoes You are giving her new friends and new challenges and so many lessons and some of her best memories When you give a girl a pair of cleats you are giving her a team You are giving her a group of girls that she might not have ever talked to if it wasnt for these common cleats A group of girls who will teach her how to be a teammate A group of girls who will laugh with her and yell at her and train with her and win with her and lose with her With a pair of cleats comes a group of mismatched people with a common goal who are learning from each other and working together SEE ALSO To The Coach That Took My Confidence Away When you give a girl a pair of cleats you are giving her a coach This coach is going to play an instrumental role in her love or hate for the sport This coach will work her hard This coach will train her and teach her and encourage her and yell at her and make her cry and hug her and cheer her on This coach wants to see her succeed This coach knows what these cleats mean what this sport means And this coach will be someone that she will watch She will watch the way that her coach When you give a girl a pair of cleats you are giving her team practices You are giving her practice that will instill discipline and dedication and commitment You are teaching her that she is on a team and she is expected to put in time You are teaching her that her presence is important and that people are relying on her You are teaching her how to balance her time because now she has school and practice and games and teammates and friends and family And for the first time in her life she has to establish priorities With When you give a girl a pair of cleats you are giving her game days You are giving her bus rides and warm up playlists and team matching hair ribbons and orange slices at halftime and constantly looking for your water bottle on the sidelines You are giving her a competitiveness that can only come out on the field You are giving her the cheers from the sidelines and the screams of her coach and the exhaustion in her legs at the end of the game You are giving her handshakes with opponents and a winning attitude even when she SEE ALSO My First Semester As A College Athlete When you give a girl a pair of cleats you are giving her a challenge She is going to grow and learn and shes going to want to quit at times but she is going to look down at her feet and remember why shes doing this Shes going to remember her teammates and her coaches and the amount of time shes poured into this sport and shes going to realize that its worth it Shes going to be covered in bruises and her socks are going to stink and shes always going to be looking for a sock or Sincerely The Girl Who Hung Up Her Cleats Cover Image Credit Hannah Cook Connect with a generation of new voices We are students thinkers influencers and communities sharing our ideas with the

We

have

all

heard

it

how

technology

has

taken

over

the

world

and

left

us

as

zombies

We

are

shells

of

who

we

may

have

been

because

instead

of

looking

around

and

experiencing

life

we

are

dependent

upon

a

lit

up

screen

We

have

all

heard

this

but

what

does

this

dependency

really

mean

for

our

future

We

are

lacking

socialization

instead

of

talking

to

and

spending

time

with

other

people

we

are

getting

all

our

information

from

the

Internet

The

Internet

is

an

amazing

resource

but

there

are

some

things

it

can

not

teach

or

give

you

It

can

not

teach

you

the

value

of

spending

time

with

friends

and

family

or

how

to

live

life

to

the

fullest

by

being

present

in

the

current

You

never

know

just

how

many

opportunities

and

experiences

pass

you

by

because

you

are

looking

down

at

your

screen

When

you

are

you

arent

going

to

look

back

With

technology

being

such

an

integral

part

of

our

lives

now

no

one

is

spared

not

even

babies

They

are

given

iPhonestablets

to

grab

and

play

with

of

toys

Instead

of

being

sent

outside

children

are

Each

generation

is

becoming

more

more

skills

that

were

deemed

necessary

Many

middle

school

kids

no

longer

know

how

to

write

or

read

cursive

or

how

to

set

up

a

written

letter

Their

attention

spans

are

getting

briefer

and

more

sporadic

unable

to

be

We

now

live

in

a

world

where

it

is

possible

to

talk

instantly

with

someone

on

the

other

end

of

the

Earth

This

instant

communication

is

convenient

and

helpful

however

it

creates

a

reality

where

the

conversation

never

really

ends

Countless

texts

are

sent

back

and

forth

and

conversations

lose

their

meaning

People

run

out

of

things

to

say

and

become

redundant

Relationships

become

even

harder

because

even

couples

need

time

away

from

each

other

Technology

makes

this

difficult

to

do

because

even

if

we

are

not

currently

talking

with

the

other

person

it

is

not

hard

to

go

Talking

to

someone

on

the

phone

or

face

to

face

has

become

harder

We

are

so

used

to

speaking

in

messages

to

people

behind

a

screen

that

we

can

not

see

that

talking

in

real

time

to

someone

right

in

front

of

us

becomes

nerve

racking

We

have

lost

social

skills

manners

and

expect

everything

to

be

delivered

to

us

as

fast

as

the

Internet

does

Like

Odyssey

on

Facebook

We

are

constantly

distracted

We

try

to

multitask

at

all

times

having

conversations

with

people

while

looking

down

at

our

phones

writing

emails

while

in

a

lecture

and

even

texting

and

driving

It

has

gotten

to

the

point

where

our

multitasking

is

dangerous

Just

because

we

can

multitask

or

think

we

can

does

not

mean

that

we

should

Take

the

time

to

fully

immerse

yourself

in

the

moment

and

listen

to

your

friend

when

they

talk

to

you

give

the

teacher

your

full

attention

and

perhaps

most

importantly

pay

attention

to

the

road

When

we

multitask

we

are

not

fully

We

are

all

so

distracted

by

our

phones

that

we

have

not

fully

noticed

the

zombie

apocalypse

that

is

happening

right

in

Technology

is

a

beautiful

thing

but

if

we

can

not

learn

how

to

use

it

responsibly

and

in

The Importance of Fictive Kin Because all types of family important Shannon Bay Malia Gregory Shannon Bay Malia Gregory Sep 30 2016 1k views Kinship is defined as a network of culturally recognized relationships among individuals either through affinal marriage or consanguineal blood ties In other words kinship is a sense of being related to another person or persons Kinship is family Im pretty sure that most people have come to the consensus that family is important however we cant always rely on our families Sometimes we dont live with them Maybe theyre in another state or even another country Perhaps our relationship with our family is complicated and were not as close knit as some other families Whatever the case our family the like family to us Fictive kin is tremendously important to me for many different reasons My friends and my boyfriend have always been the people I fall back on If something goes wrong theyre the first ones I talk to about it Since moving away from home Ive had to leave my family and friends my kin and fictive kin behind and all I can really do now is text call or video chat them which is far less fulfilling than actually being with them They arent gone theyre just far and thats hard When I moved it kind of felt Cover Image Credit Shannon Bay Gregory Like Odyssey on Facebook The ABCs Of Odyssey O is for Odyssey Sarah Maria Sena Soares Sarah Maria Sena Soares 52k views Since joining Odyssey even before Ive seen a ton of articles titled The ABCs of But what I havent seen yet is the ABCs of Odyssey So I decided to give it a shot and here it is A is for Articles Because there is an article for everyone on here You can search for anything and I can guarentee that youll find the perfect article for you B is for Biweekly Writing can be time consuming and thats why Odyssey offers a biweekly writing position C is for Community Theres over 10000 different communities here on Odyssey D is for Deadlines With writing comes deadlines E is for Edits Because yes are content gets edited by our EIC before it gets published F is for Feature Every creator wishes is to go viral and be featured on Odysseys homepage G is for Gifs Gifs are a huge part of Odysseys writer pieces especially sarcastic pieces H is for Headline Our headlines are what grab the readers attention in the first place I is for Ideas As an Odyssey writer I can say that I just come up with an idea and write about it J is for Journey Becoming apart of Odyssey is a journey you start off unsure about tons of things and then you end up loving it and some people get to move up and be on the Eboard K is for Kindness Odyssey creators are often spreading kindness and being kind to other creators even if they have opposing opinions L is Listicle A listicle is just an article thats a list Like this one lol M is for Meta A meta is how something should appear when somethings been googled N is for Notes Writers often start with a few simple notes that they turn into an article O is for Opinion A writers article is their opinion on whatever they choose to write about P is for Page Views The more page views the better Q is for Questions Articles often leave readers with unanswered questions or answers to questions theyve always wanted the answers to R is for Revisions Because sometimes you need to revise your content before its ready for the world to be seen S is for Shares Every creator wants their articles to be shared all over the different social media websites T is for Topic As a writer you can write about whatever topic you want to U is for Unique Every article writer and community is unique and comes up with original material V is for Voice Odyssey is for people to be able to get their voice out and for their voice to be heard W is for Writers Without writers there would be no Odyssey X is for Xtra Curricular Being apart of Odyssey means youre involved in an extracurricular activity Y is for Young Adults Odyssey is a platform for millennials Z is for ZZZZ Often writers are busy with school homework and work so articles get written and finished late at night right around bedtime lol Cover Image Credit pexels Connect with a generation of new voices We are students thinkers influencers and communities sharing our ideas with the world Join our platform to create and discover content that actually matters to you Start Creating 5 Things I Learned In My First Semester Of College Its nothing like the movies yall Javairia Haq Javairia Haq

The Relevance of Niccolo Machiavellis The Prince to Contemporary Society and Politics Leadership and Human Nature DaNiyah Goodwin DaNiyah Goodwin Dec 14 2017 35k views Niccolò Machiavelli was born on May 3 1469 in Florence Italy He began his work in government as a clerk in 1494 This was the same year that the Medici family who ruled Florence for approximately 60 years was exiled In 1498 Machiavelli became a diplomat for the Florentine Republic The Medicis banishment was only temporary and they returned to power in 1512 Machiavelli was suspected of conspiracy and outlawed It was during this time that he wrote his most famous work yet The Prince His theories reflected on how rulers and leaders ought to rule and maintain power His perspective on human nature can make his concept of a great leader seem cruel and evil In fact the word Machiavellian is used to describe a ruler who leads by the philosophy of the ends justify the means In other words it is justifiable to do whatever it takes to get and maintain power The ability to enforce fear and behave evilly or good is essential when one is trying to obtain preserve or lengthen their power according to the principles of Niccolò Machiavelli Machiavelli One of the major principles Machiavelli elaborated on is this concept of appearances Throughout The Prince he is constantly reinforcing this notion that a prince should appear to be all faith friendship humanity and religion but not actually be any of these things The characteristics people want in an ideal leader contrast with reality They may want someone who is honest faithful and unbiased but reality indicates that this is not what is best Humans are selfinterested profitdriven and deceitful Therefore if a leader wants to remain in power he must to be selfinterested profitdriven and deceitful Machiavelli has a very low opinion of humans they are easily manipulated and would withdraw their support for you Like Odyssey on Facebook In 2006 Barack Obama stated his opposition to samesex marriage He made his faith a central part of his campaign strategy in 2008 Many have claimed that Obama misled Americans into thinking that his opposition to gay marriage was because of religious background Nick Spencers The Mighty And The Almighty How Political Leaders Do God describes the effect Christianity has on contemporary political power The story told by Obamas former senior advisor David Axelrod claiming that Obama had always supported samesex marriage but had been persuaded to hide his position during his first campaign verified the belief that the president lied about his religious beliefs in order to further his agenda Some conservatives still find the authenticity of Obama Christian faith questionable The United States is predominantly a Christian nation so it would make sense for politicians to make religion a campaign strategy in hopes of winning the votes from the American people During a TRUMP If Im president Christianity will have power in the US He stated Because if Im there youre going to have plenty of power You dont need anybody else Youre going to have somebody representing you very very well Remember that Former President George Bush is labeled as a Machiavellian leader because of his decision to invade Iraq in hopes of protecting American territory In 2003 Bush made the decision to declare war against Iraq Allegedly Bush was religiously motivated to end the dangers in Iraq In an article Bush God Talk Rumors About Iraq War Spark Controversy And Debate posted by the Americans United Bush supposedly stated to Nabil Shaath thenPalestinian foreign minister God would tell me George go and fight those terrorists in Afghanistan And I did and then God would tell me George go and end tyranny in Iraqand I did Machiavelli stressed that the only good war is just war It could be argued that Bush used religious tactics to justify his decision Do politicians use religion to appeal to the masses and make their decision seem favorable in the eyes of Christians According to Machiavelli they do They make it appear as if God is Machiavelli implied that it is fine for a prince to be good but only in a state where everyone is good and honest However since we live in a world of evil and selfish humans it is necessary to behave evilly According to Machiavelli a prince must be neutral so he can behave immorally or moral when he must In The Prince he stated Hence it is necessary for a prince wishing to hold his own to know how to do wrong and to make use of it or not according to necessity The prince as Machiavelli describes him is moral He is not necessarily cruel or righteous He must be morally neutral so that he can behave in a way that is evil or good if necessary Humankind in general is evil so we must be comfortable with having to do immoral things During the 2002 mayoral election for Newark New Jersey councilman Cory Booker felt strongly about his positive stick Street Fight Booker soon realized he stepped into a ring with a pit bull The veteran mayors campaign was filled with illicit tactics and mudslinging James accused Booker of conspiring with the KKK and the Taliban collaborating with Jews to take over Newark and being a Republican James even went far enough to question Bookers ethnicity and incited that his opponent wasnt black enough to run a city like Newark Bookers campaign took many hits Local businesses owners who displayed Booker signs were shut down and raided Residents who held meetings in their homes were threatened with eviction During the namecalling and Battleground he explains how unethical people can be successful in the business world and corporate business scandals are proof of that One of the examples he used was Andrew Fastow Fastow former chief financial officer of Enron Corporation an energy trading company disgraced his legacy when he was convicted and charged with fraud Although he was eventually caught his unethical behavior kept him wealthy and an honorary figure in the business world for years Walden elaborates on how corporate businesses have one goal in mind to make money Since financial performance not ethical is rewarded it is very easy for ethical We all have a vision of how society should be and how we all should be righteous Machiavelli exposes mankind of their hypocrisy This is evident when he states because how one lives is so far distant from how one ought to live that he who neglects what is done for what ought to be done sooner effects his ruin than his preservation for a man who wishes to act entirely up to his professions of virtue soon meets with what destroys him among so much that is evil Machiavelli is saying that this vision of how we should be Reality Bites Back The Troubling Truth About Guilty Pleasure TV Jennifer Pozner slams reality shows and proclaims the need for higher quality television She argues that reality TV exacerbates medias superficiality rather than adding any type of depth Pozners argument may be true but people are going to watch what they want The National Geographic Channel and Discovery Channel may offer content that is more educational than the content presented on VH1 or MTV but statistics show that educational content is not what consumers are attracted to Pozner presented the fact that in January 2007 CBS Evening News reported that more people watched American Idol on Fox than saw President Bushs State of the Union speech on ABC NBC and CBS combined The Kardashians are publicly ridiculed and declared as trashy However it does not stop millions of people from tuning into their successful reality show stalking their social media accounts or purchasing their products It is true we should be exploring educational content We should be reading Shakespeare There should be marketing of scholastic programming However that is not what is going to happen Machiavelli is saying that is how we ought to live but not how we are currently living Advertisers are going The ideologies of Machiavellis The Prince continue to live on through contemporary society and politics The guidance he offered rulers is still applied today His suggestion to act as if you obtain all the characteristics the people want basically sums up Americas political system Humans are fascinated with appearances They want leaders with all the great attributes honesty faithfulness and integrity A great leader must pretend to be these things because that is how they will rise to power However to maintain that power they must be able to use good and bad interchangeably Being good all the time can Cover Image Credit RM Illustration

Exploring Ethical Issues in Commercialized Biobanking By Amanda Maxwell 07212016 In a debate paper published by BMC Medical Ethics Stoeklé et al 2016 explore ethical issues in biobanking that relate to operating a directtoconsumer DTC commercial genetic testing company that also collaborates with thirdparty researchers 1 Noting that this form of operation brings great potential for expanding resources for personalized medicine research the authors consider areas that may cause concern regarding informed consent privacy and data sharing Biotech company 23andMe has been in operation since 2006 It offers a DTC genetic testing service that provides ancestry information in addition to data on disease risk based on genomic analysis suspended by the Food and Drug Administration in November 2013 due to concerns about predictive test validity limited reinstatement in February 2015 For a fee consumers can purchase personal genetic information on ancestry and also obtain a report on singlenucleotide polymorphisms that indicate susceptibility to disease Consumers request a kit which they then mail back to the company with a saliva sample in addition to selfreported personal information Most consumers are healthy 23andMe offers two services to the general public DTC genetic testing for ancestry or disease prediction and the opportunity to participate in 23andMe research Participation in the latter is voluntary and optional but requires consent for the company to use samples and all data collected Through digital permission the company obtains consent to biobank saliva and DNA and to store personal data with permission to share these data with both the company and thirdparty collaborators As discussed previously most customers do not take these steps under medical supervision furthermore there is no direct contact with a clinical research counselor or With the promotion of 23andMe research as an option to customers Stoeklé et al suggest that this novel commercial biobanking venture is a twosided model acting as an intermediary between two markets the general public and research bodies There are therefore interests in both scientific and financial gain to consider in the companys operation The researchers identify a number of concerns over ethical issues in the initial operation of 23andMe biobanking and they raise them in this paper for discussion Consent The papers authors raise the issue of lack of guidance over requesting genetic or ancestry testing Customers opt for genetic indication of disease susceptibility without input from a clinician or genetics counselor There is a little or no discussion of the goals for genetic testing This may leave customers with little understanding of the impact that a genetic result can have for themselves and family members Since the service also includes ancestry testing paternity issues could arise Although the company does state this potential in information to prospective customers consent is only gathered from the feepaying individual and not from relatives that might be affected by genetic testing There is also no explicit discussion of goals achievable from participating in additional research although it is promoted as a fullservice option For this customers consent to sharing biobanked samples and DNA selfreported data genetic information and statistics on their Web use behavior with 23andMe thirdparty collaborators Clinical management 23andMe returns genetic data directly to the consumer there is no interpretation by or consultation with a trained medical professional though customers can seek this option on their own The level of genetics training among general practitioners is variable and thus interpretation of results for followup might not be complete Privacy and safety issues As mentioned 23andMe offers two services to the public genetic testing and an option to take part in further research In the former genetics results are relayed directly back to the individual and are thus covered in the United States by the Genetic Entitled Information NonDiscrimination Act which prevents discrimination and privacy issues However by consenting to take part in research the customer agrees to share data Accessibility Operating for financial gain could limit accessibility by research institutions thus promoting bias in studies arising from biobanked data grant funding size and availability might limit access to data and resources Conflicting interests Here the authors note that Google was a major early investor in 23andMe during initial rounds of funding 23andMes proximity to a global monopoly in Internet search technology stands out as an area of concern when considering its acquisition of user Webbrowsing data Despite identifying concern for these ethical issues and raising them for debate Stoeklé et al point out that this biobanking model shows great potential as a resource for future research into personalized medicine The value of DNA banking increases with the advent of new nextgeneration sequencing technologies such as the chipbased Illumina and Ion Torrent and nanopore technology MinION instruments In order to maximize this value companies such as 23andMe should seek to improve transparency building acceptance among consumers by detailing the benefits of biosample donation In turn the biobanking industry must develop better regulations to guide new business models Reference 1 Stoeklé HC et al 2016 23andMe A new twosided databanking market model BioMed Central Medical Ethics1719
