ethics of genetics and neuroimaging testing

TRANSCRIPT: Meeting 4, Session 6

DR. GUTMANN:
Hank, thank you. I’m going to ask all of our presenters to help us on a specific question that we ourselves, are going to be asking and answering, over the next week or so, and that is, what we, as a Commission, on the broad subject area of genetic and neuroimaging and its ethical implications and the social responsibility attached to that, what can we most productively take on, as a Commission?
 
So, what I’m going to do is really go around, not ask the Commission members, but the presenters, a very pointed question.
