Decoding the Human Genome, Scientific basis and ethic and social aspects
by S.E. Antonarakis and A. Mauron / Univ. of Geneva

Decoding the Human genome is a very up-to-date topic, raising several questions besides purely scientific, in view of the two competing teams (public and private), the ethics of using the results, and the fact that the project went apparently faster and easier than expected. The lecture series will address the following chapters:

  • Scientific basis and challenges,
  • Ethical and social aspects of genomics.
