WHEN DOES GENE THERAPY NOT WORK? WHAT ARE THE ETHICS OF GENE THERAPY? |
My name is Tom Murphy and I am a senior biology and biochemistry major at Monmouth College. I plan on attending medical school next fall. A legitimate question would be why am I interested in this topic? I am interested in the topic of gene therapy because of my background in biology and biochemistry and because of my future plans of pursuing a career in medicine. I believe this will be a very controversial topic in years to come and I feel it will impact the medical community the hardest. I feel that gene therapy presents many new possibilities that were never there before. However, I feel it presents many ethical questions that must be addressed before it can become what everyone hopes it will be. If any questions arise throughout this webpage I can be reached by email. |
