What this law does
Section 3614.4 of Title 36 may be cited as the Genetic Research Studies Nondisclosure Act. A genetic research study is one approved by an institutional review board as defined in 21 CFR, Section 50, or conducted subject to the federal common rule.

It is permissible to publish or otherwise use the results of genetic research studies for research or educational purposes if no individual subject is identified.
