- PreviewWe are investigators working on the Australian Reproductive Genetic Carrier Screening Project (ARGCSP), known as Mackenzie’s Mission. The aim of the project is to study how best to implement population-wide carrier screening and involves an offer of screening to >8000 Australian reproductive couples.1 We welcome efforts to address the important questions raised in the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Carrier Screening Practice Resource2 and agree that standardization of carrier screening practice is desirable.
