Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Human Genome Project, How Private Sector Developments Affect the Government Program: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Energy and Environment of the Committee on Science, U. S. House of Representatives, One Hundred Fifth Congress, Second Session; June 17, 1998
Our witnesses today, a cross-section of distinguished scientists from the government and from the private sectors, should be able to supply, I hope, some of the answers to those questions.
One of the witnesses today warns that Congress is the wrong forum in which to debate the relative merits of different scientific approaches to sequencing the human genome. Let me say I couldn't agree more. We're not, as my friend George Brown might say, set up to be a science court.
