Description
Do you think your genes define you? What implications would there be if yourDNA profile was merged with your medical history and personal information and then stored on a computer chip? How could this benefit doctors and scientists? Is our privacy or even our security at risk? Join a panel including the Scottish Youth Parliament and Dr Claudia Pagliari, Convenor of the eHealth Interdisciplinary Research Group, for an engaging, complex debate.
Supported by the ESRC Genomics Policy and Research Forum
