A series produced
by the Illinois Humanities Council and brought to you via the Illinois
Channel.
Advances in

genetic testing – have sparked polarized debates. Yet, the general public
is not having a robust conversation about the ethics and implications of
these advances. It is more important than ever that we all
understand the issues.
