In Gattaca, a film whose roots are firmly planted in the Science Fiction genre, the timeline in which the movie is set is never really stated, thus it could be next year, in another ten, or not for one hundred. While this is effective is making us believe that this could be, "just around the corner", the society presented is widely regarded as being too close to our present day in order to present a true chilling image. With DNA testing already quite common in the sporting world and in what the movie centers around, space exploration, Gattaca arguably fails to deliver its message with enough force to severely impact on the psyche of viewers.…
This includes bones, shells, pips, stalks from food packaging, nut, bolts, jewellery, hair, fingernails and insect droppings. If premises are cleaned regularly including equipment this helps. Chemical contamination can be caused by not keeping cleaning materials separate from food areas and by agricultural chemicals including fertilisers. Fruit and vegetables should be washed before eating. Foods in open cans must be transferred to another container as the food can react with the can. Cleaning materials must be kept in a locked cupboard rinsed well after using. Biological contamination is caused by bacteria or viruses which multiply to dangerous levels, then when the food is eaten it can cause illness. Good hygiene must be followed during preparation, cooking and serving…

The Genographic Project initially started in 2005 headed by Dr. Spencer Wells from National Geographic and I.B.M 's biologist Dr. Ajay Royyur, set out on a mission that would change the perception of ones ancestors forever. (Geno2.0) With lead funding from the Wait Family Foundation they embarked on a long and strenuous journey to take a deeper look into; not only indigenous cultures but the general public’s ancestor. The Genographic Project embarked to do something that had never been done before collect D.N.A samples on a grand scale and keep track of similarities that they found along the way. By doing this on a large scale they would be able to have the biggest recorded data base of human D.N.A. Being able to match their findings back to ancestries that would have been thought to have been related. The project became possible with the advancements of D.N.A analysis. They obtained samples from various indigenous tribes by having them swap cells from inside of their cheeks and recording their findings. (Geno2.0) The same process was done with individuals in the general public. Dr. Spence Wells states, that in putting all this information together the general public can obtain a better idea of how we are all truly related. (IBM) Skin color or ethnic backgrounds are not truly things that make us different or similar. We are all inactuallity more alike than we could ever begin to imagine.…

Genetics are the instructions that determine an organism’s appearance and distinct characteristics. Genetic engineering is the science of manipulating genes in some way. There are many different opinions on this subject. Genetic engineering could improve diseases or create a “ designer child”. On the other hand, it is not natural ,could have unintended consequences, and is sometimes not viewed as moral. In my opinion, genetic modification should not be used to change humans cosmetically ,but could be used for medical reasons.…
The key argument in favor of the human genome project is based on its potential for treating individuals severely affected by their condition. Genetic bases for many diseases have been proven,which makes the human genome project very important for understanding how to treat, and even cure some of these diseases (Friedman & Schustack, 2005) A ideal example is Lesch-Nyhan disease, which is distinguished communication deficits and involuntary self-injurious behavior. Males who have this disorder have to be restrained frequently to prevent them from inflicting serious damage on themselves. Most of these individuals have their have teeth removed to keep from biting their lips off. If we have a new medical genetic technology that will cure this…
Imagine a world where we can have two of everything. Think about the possibilities. Imagine having two Ankits. Actually, I kinda want to take that back now. One Ankit is already too much. I might as well walk myself off the stage, but before that happens, I need to tell you a bit about genetic engineering and cloning. So what is genetic engineering and cloning? Well genetic engineering is the deliberate modification of the characteristic of an organism by manipulating its genetic material. While cloning is using this genetic material to produce an exact replica of the original organism. Both these processes have…
My choice to pursue a career in genetic counseling came about in an unconventional way. I entered my freshman year of college believing that I would become a chemical engineer. This decision was originally based upon my interest in science, my fondness for problem solving, and the hope that I could help others. During my first semester as an undergraduate at the University of Delaware, I realized that my passion for this career was not present, and I felt as if I had made a mistake. I had no doubts about my academic abilities in this field, but did not feel the enthusiasm that I desired in a career path.…
In my opinion, I think that Jenny and Bob Miller should take the necessary risks in order to make their sons life more comfortable and possibly cure them of their disease in the near future due to gene therapy. The gene therapy is not far from being a reality in medicine that can cure muscular dystrophy, and the injections of normal muscle cells from healthy individuals can relieve some of the pain they are experiencing until a cure is generated. Muscular dystrophy is a very painful disease and anything and everything should be done to help the individuals who suffer from this disease. Jenny and Bob Miller are a wealthy couple and have enough money to afford the injections for their children. Immunological rejection is a possibility that comes with the injection of healthy muscle cells, but this risk is worth taking because without the injections of muscle cells the children may die before the cure for muscular dystrophy can be created. These children will not live as long as they possibly could without the muscular injections that will keep them alive long enough for the cure for muscular dystrophy to be invented. Saving a life is always worth the risk. Even if the children’s bodies reject the new muscle tissue, they will be no worse off than they would have been without the injections. With the injections, the children will have a chance to live a more normal life than they ever would have been able to without medical help. Gene therapy is the ultimate cure, but unless the injections are allowed to commence the children will not live long enough to see the cure for muscular…
Having the characteristic generosity can take you very far throughout your life. Generosity is having the habit of giving without expecting anything in return. This quality is very important to have and can give you such a good feeling. It makes you feel like there is actually good in the world and that just you doing a simple task can actually make a big difference.…
