Since the inception of the Human Genome Project, scientific curiosity
has increased in the areas of cloning, forensic identification,
environmental cleanup, disease resistant plants and animals,
gene therapy, diagnosing diseases, and organ transplants. This
"new genetics" information brings with it many new
concerns.
Linda Davis is a former high school biology teacher with over
30 years experience. She was selected for a project sponsored
by the Department of Energy and the National Institute of Health
which encouraged teachers to dispense the most current research
about the Human Genome Project. The important aspects of the
Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications of this genome project
can be shared through an entertaining, lively, and interactive
program. Linda focuses her presentation on providing interactive
involvement of unraveling the genetic basis of heredity, DNA,
from cells. She also intertwines her biology background about
DNA with 3D models and displays while enabling all participants
the opportunity to ask questions.
This opportunity is unique. Linda will work with any group
or organization to modify the program to benefit those who participate.
The most advantageous part of her program is that everyone is
actively engaged. Therefore enrollment is limited.
