The human genome and public policy: a nursing perspective
1School of Nursing at Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond 23298-0567, USA. jalewis@hsc.vcu.edu
Abstract:
The Human Genome Project has completed a rough draft of the sequence that comprises human DNA. For the first time, the scientific discoveries have been conducted in tandem with research exploring the social, legal, and ethical implications of the research. Several committees have studied the policy implications of the genetics information explosion. The Secretary's Advisory Committee on Genetic Testing's report was received by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in November 2000 and contains recommendations for the oversight of genetic testing. Public policy issues that affect nursing practice in the area of genetics must be explored by individual nurses and professional nursing organizations.
