摘要: On both sides of the Atlantic, revolutionary claims have been made about ultimate impact genetics on clinical medicine. John Bell at Oxford has asserted that “within next decade genetic testing will be used widely for predictive in healthy people and diagnosis management patients. . The excitement field shifted to elucidation basis common diseases.”1 And United States director National Human Genome Research Institute, Francis Collins, stated good would come from mapping human . . .
