La Jungle du gène

The Jungle of Genomics

More and more often, genetic research is privately funded. In the United States, where a large part of this research is concentrated and the culture of the gene is in full bloom, a privileged link exists between science and the economy. The bio-technical companies are run by ambitious scientists and backed by influential business people who, despite high research costs and low return rates, are capable of raising the needed investment capital for this potentially staggering growth market. The virtual nature of genetic research and its financial logistics make for a powderkeg of questions for the health field. Will contemporary America’s liberal economy and the system of values it implies take over the medical field ?
