- Genetics gets personal: Allison, Chris, Mike, and Paul share stories about the personal impacts of genetic information, in terms of how it affects specific health issues and also how we think about our own identities.

A central message and one of pgEd’s favorites – our genes are only part of the story of who we are and what our future holds.
- Debating the issues: Alison, Chris, Paul, and the people who participated in our roundtable discussion discuss the distinction between a trait versus a disease and how reproductive technologies should be used. Many questions are raised, and there are no simple answers. What do you think?
