Abstract
Objectives. The purpose of this study was to study the legal regime of pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) procedures in Israel in the context of the formation of the concept of legal regulation of this diagnosis in the Russian Federation. Materials. The legal acts and doctrinal sources of Israel on the problems of PGD and genetic research are examined. Methods used: general philosophical, general scientific, private scientific, special (structural-legal, comparative-legal, formal-legal). Results. The features of the legal regulation of the PGD procedure in Israel are determined, the ways of partial borrowing of such in Russia are proposed. Conclusions. It has been established that the general concept of legal regulation of PGD in Israel can be proposed for borrowing due to the following components: 1) an integrated approach to legal regulation of PGD in which the recommendations for diagnostics are formulated based on the results of the implementation of state programs to support genetic studies and the fight against congenital diseases; 2) a combination of legislative regulation of basic guarantees in the field of PGD with subjective by-law regulation of indications and conditions for each stage of diagnosis; 3) a combination of legislative and by-laws regulation with regulation at the level of professional guidelines; 4) the flexibility of normative legal regulation, which allows authorizing the implementation of PGD in certain non-standard cases; 5) the existence of special requirements for the content of genetic counseling in PGD, which serves as an important guarantee of protecting the rights of consumers of medical services.
