Workshop: Genetics and Social Justice
December 7, 2016, 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
Join pgEd for an engaging workshop for educators that will explore issues of genetics and social justice. How does genetics intersect with issues of social justice? As genetic technologies become more widespread, how can our society ensure that education about and access to this information is available to all people?
Social studies, biology, humanities, health, law, and government teachers and administrators encouraged to attend (all content areas welcome).
Topics include: Introduction to personal genetics, American eugenics movement, reproductive genetics, and facilitating difficult conversations.
