djet Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Most people probably havn't heard of this, but it's something that caught my eye and caused me to go "WTF?" Yes genes in your DNA are not yours. They are "owned" by companies, universities and are able to be patented. I know I've presented a bias in the question because I am personally against, but try to ignore that.

djet Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 Sorta heard about it through the pipeline but here are some reports: http://www.twnside.org.sg/title/egz1-cn.htm http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/category/2314.html http://www.ornl.gov/sci/techresources/Huma...i/patents.shtml It exists.

killbot1000 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Its true, its not that they own the genes, they own the rights to exclusively mess with the genes in the future (drugs, treatments, etc.) In any case though, I believe it is still {censored}ed up, and stifles progress toward fixing real problems with medicine and genetics.

I'm afraid a talking ape named Dave, dressed as a boy, will come and throw feces at me. Hehe, that's where I got it, but I know that some people can have a auto-bias against MC.

Maxintosh Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I urge everyone here too. It is VERY informative. It was good but it needed to be edited down. Lots of things were redundant and drawn out. I thought that this movie was much better produced and more factual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its in the post from earlier. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1070329053600562261 Your logic about funding is very interesting... Quite probably wrong too. Just because a huge university or body has funding from one person who you consider to be wrong, it doesn't mean the scientific body is wrong, or the people that fund them and their reasons. I get £10 a week from the council to help me with my education, but that doesn't mean I am biased to support them (Moray Council: worst council in the UK, SNP run...) Just because some bank that *you* consider to be evil funds so university, doesn't mean that the science being made by grad students or others is adhering to the 'evil plan' of the funding organisation. You're just blowing things completely out of perspective! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
