This study looked at the possibility of offering gene testing to all Ashkenazi Jewish people in London. The aim of the GCaPPS research study was to find the best method of screening for risk of inherited (familial) cancer. It compared the current system of testing only those with a strong family history of cancer with the new option of testing everyone (population testing).
