dc.description.abstract	Sara Golru, in this Special Edition on Causation, presents a comparative analysis of the role of genetic marker evidence in toxic tort cases throughout Australia and the United States. Sara identifies inconsistencies in the approach of Australian courts to genetic evidence of causation, and considers how developments in the US can inform toxic tort litigation in Australia.	en
