A University of Alberta law professor is urging caution and precision in the field of genetic research to avoid a flare-up in racist attitudes.So the truth is inconvenient is it? good to see a law professor with that opinionStressing DNA differences could exacerbate prejudice
oh may the Gods help us, no their not different they just haven't washedAre we going to give the unintended message that we are genetically different and therefore increase notions of racism and discrimination?" Caulfield said on Sunday.
http://www.canada.com/edmontonjourna...5-d99926efb293Caulfield decided to explore the issue last spring after he had an informal discussion with University of Toronto medical professor Dr. Abdallah Daar.
Daar said race is biologically significant and worth studying at a genetic level; Caulfield said race is a social construct and inaccurately represented in research.
Please note the scientists name here, I expect that's the only reason he still has a job. Why would a law professor have a better grasp of medicine than a professor in that field??
