Prize-winning geneticist Andrew Fire answers several questions relating to ethics, politics, and science research.-----Andrew Fire discusses "The Genetic Landscape: What is RNA Interference?"Fire knows more than most people about the mysteries of genetics. Come learn about genetics and RNA interference from the winner of the 2006 Nobel Prize in medicine, for advances in gene silencing - a process that allows cells to selectively turn off specific genes. Research in this area jump-started a new biological field by opening the door to previously inaccessible lodes of genetic information - The Commonwealth ClubAndrew Zachary Fire is an American professor of pathology and genetics at Stanford University.Fire is one of the laureates of the 2006 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, along with Craig C. Mello, for the discovery of RNA interference (RNAi). This research was conducted at the Carnegie Institution of Washington and published in 1998. Fire is currently professor of pathology and of genetics at the Stanford University School of Medicine, which he joined in 2003.

Now see what I meant was if we always make good choices, each of us would be the way the genes' blueprints (in our bodies) "read" us to be. Like the condition of our lungs. if we smoke (or one of us smokes) we/you are making our/your lungs dirty. To have your body the way it was meant to be, make good choices.

We can change how we look. Just messing, though, with our genetics is actually messing up who we our (individually). Cause see, each of us is unique. Physically, too.

Well said. As a non-consensual subject of secret military research, it is clear that the public has NO IDEA of the nefarious applications that have been developed by government. They are so extreme most people, when told about them, can't believe it.

That's the price of corporatist fascism.

while on the subject of genetic experiments...Food should also be labeled as GMO or NO-GMO, right now every man, woman and child in America is a Monsanto guinea-pig.

Transparency and being fully open to peer review and public scrutiny is essential to avoid abuse and horrors. This makes for-profit* and military research dangerous because of the typical secretive nature of these. Even public research needs to be fully opened and transparent to avoid disgusting aberations like the Tuskegee Experiments.* even the Colonel Sanders spices are a secret ;)
