Human Genome Sequencing Consortium
The Human Genome Sequencing Consortium is a group put together to discuss the future of human genome sequencing. Commonly known as the Human Genome project, scientists such as Allison and Roddenberry are working together to bring together this somewhat controversial process. While this process mostly has to do with cloning, many people are skeptical on the moral application of this outstanding and interesting technology. Some of the applications of human genome sequencing such as rice cloning to help the hungry and the rice genome project are some of the controversial issues that are on trial all over the world.

Why I Felt British Researchers Had to Patent the BRCA2 Gene
By Patrick Treacy
Presently, Myriad charges many thousands of dollars to analyse the two genes and the service is available without prior genetic counselling. We should hence also recognise the philanthropic attitude of The Cancer Research Campaign Technology, who have blocked the Myriad patent in Britain and in Australia on the basis that it mostly funded the initial research that eventually led to BRCA2's identification.

DNA Analysis
By Kristy Annely
The DNA of a person is responsible for providing information regarding who and what the person is since it contains the design of the genetically passed traits taken from both parents. A lot of information may be attained when one carefully studies the DNA and relates it to possible other discoveries about the person, such as parentage, disease predisposition, etc. DNA is responsible for the person's hair color, eye color, build, susceptibility to certain disorders, and a lot more. Careful analysis must be done in order to use the DNA as a means to study and evaluate a person with regard to inherent traits passed on by his/her parents.
