Abstract
The inclusion of adults with intellectual disability (ID) in precision medicine research has scientific, public health, and social justice justifications. Yet there is an indication that this population is excluded from general (i.e., nondisability specific) health research, including precision medicine research. Adults with ID are thus unlikely to reap the benefits emerging from such scientific endeavors-today and in the future. In this commentary, we explore key issues in research ethics, including cohort diversity, the principle of justice, and consent, and discuss their ramifications for adults with ID and precision medicine researchers. We call for endorsing team science collaboration and community engagement to promote health equity for adults with ID and disability justice in precision medicine research.
