Project goals: "A continuing
challenge is to safeguard the privacy of individuals and groups who contribute DNA samples
for large-scale sequence-variation studies. Other concerns are to anticipate how the
resulting data may affect concepts of race and ethnicity; identify potential uses (or
misuses) of genetic data in workplaces, schools, and courts; identify commercial uses; and
foresee impacts of genetic advances on the concepts of humanity and personal
responsibility." |
