PIZZA LUNCH PODCASTS
Reflections on a Public Genome
Duke University geneticist Misha Angrist’s genome is a public document, thanks to his participation in Harvard’s Personal Genome Project. Angrist reflects on the medical and ethical implications of the project in his 2010 book, Here is a Human Being: At the Dawn of Personal Genomics.
In this podcast, he speaks with associate editor Cathy Clabby about his experience.
Angrist spoke at the Sigma Xi headquarters in October 2011.
