The Gen-Ethics Bowl – An In-Class Activity Combining Genetics and Bioethics
Undergraduate science professors are capable of teaching the scientific principles behind new genetic technologies. However, they are not often readied to explore the ethical and social implications. We created an ethics bowl that brings together students in genetic and healthcare ethics courses to...
