Description
Medicine is getting personal with the advent of genetics-based diagnostics, treatments and prognoses. But some ethicists and clinicians think it is getting too personal too soon. They question whether even the best of the current genetic tests are ready for use on patients, and whether the patients are ready for the information they might learn. But companies are already offering a host of new tests to the public, bypassing the usual medical and ethical intermediaries. To discuss these issues, the 2008 Milken Institute Global Conference brought together a panel of experts, including acclaimed scientist Craig Venter. Genetic information will become integrated into our daily lives, but are we ready?This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.
