Abstract
Applying the duty to rescue to incidental findings in genomic research provides benefits over the ancillary care framework. A rescue model avoids conflating the return of genetic information with providing needed clinical care, it recognizes the ethical duties researchers have toward the research study and offers a mechanism for appropriately balancing these with obligations to individual subjects, and answers definitively that there is no duty to search for incidental findings.
