A conversation on ethics and genetic testing with Emily Bloom Goldberg, Genetic Counselor with JScreen and Dr. Tim Lahey, physician ethicist at UVM Medical Center.  

Each new genetic test developed raises serious issues for medicine, public health, and social policy regarding the circumstances under which the test should be used, how the test is implemented, and what uses are made of its results. Learn more about the ethical and social aspects of genetic testing in clinical and research settings.

About the Presenters

Five years ago Kisilu, a Kenyan farmer, started to use his camera to capture the life of his family, his village and the damages of climate change. When a violent storm throws him and a Norwegian filmmaker together we see him transform from a father, to community leader to an activist on the global stage.

Thank You For The Rain addresses a range of issues linked to climate change, including climate justice, urbanization, gender equality, education, access to water, climate refugees, and adaptation.
