British scientists have announced a new genetic screening tool that can detect up to 6,000 inheritable diseases, thousands more diseases than possible with current screening methods. The discovery, as one scientist has said, "changes everything." Will this knowledge result in better "preventative" health care, or be taken to the extreme as a new and terrifying form of eugenics. Guest host Christopher Thomas and two medical ethicists discuss where the line should be drawn and, more importantly, if any line CAN be drawn. That's The Sunday Edition, right after the 9 a.m. news (9:30 NT) on CBC Radio One." http://www.cbc.ca/thesundayedition ________________End of message______________________ This Disability-Research Discussion list is managed by the Centre for Disability Studies at the University of Leeds (www.leeds.ac.uk/disability-studies).
