Meeting our students where they are

The mission-driven nature of the KPNCAL-WSU’s Certificate Program was designed to be a low-cost, high-quality …

Ethical Considerations in the Use of Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing for Adopted Persons
The use of DTC genetic testing to identify health risks is increasingly popular. This is particularly the case for adopted persons, who often lack access to family health history information and who may see genetic testing as the best (and only) way to identify potential inherited disease risks. However, the development of genetic testing to fill gaps in family health history information for adopted persons has been hindered by several challenges…
How the Atacama Skeleton Might Advance Discussion of Responsible Conduct of Research Responsibilities
Controversies resulting from genetic testing on skeletal remains of disputed stewardship raise important questions about obligations inherent on genetic researchers to assure ethical chain of custody. In this article, we analyze and evaluate several proposed positions on whether such research should be published. Following jurisprudential standards for legitimate regulatory systems, we argue that responsible conduct of research requires reasonabl…
Adult adoptees’ attitudes regarding the potential use of genetic information to fill the gap in their family health history
Genetic testing can provide useful information related to a person’s health history. Adoptees who lack access to family health history due to inherent separation from their birth family are among those likely to benefit from this. Understanding their attitudes, including their hopes and concerns, will allow for better informed and more appropriate applications of genetic testing within this population and will help guide genetic counselling for a…
A Flowering Tree
A Flowering Tree, the new opera with music by John Adams that is based on a South Indian folktale in the Kannada language, is contrasted with Adams's earlier collaboration with Peter Sellars, Dr. Atomic. A Flowering Tree is discussed in terms of the composer's creative process, the development of his musical style, and his reflections on using materials from a variety of cultures. The article explores the complex ways in which the music and vocal…
Expanding Bioshield
The Bioshield Initiative seeks to stimulate development of new drugs and vaccines to prevent and treat diseases caused by biological agents likely to be used by terrorists, and recent proposals have sought to expand patent protections in this context. To the extent that patent protections are needed as part of the incentive structure for new drug and vaccine development, it may be better to strengthen patent protections on nonterror-related drugs…
Intelligence, Foreign Health Aid, and Bioterror Defence
Arguments for the provision of foreign aid to help relieve the blight of developing countries have traditionally centred on obligations of benevolence and a duty to help those less fortunate.1 However, the War on Terror has resulted in a significant shift in how foreign aid is perceived. International prosperity and stability are now recognized as key elements in a fight to ameliorate the conditions that give rise to terrorism. Public support for…

The Works of Sir John Suckling: The Non-Dramatic Works
XI.— On the Pottery from the Waste Heap of the Roman Potters' Kilns discovered at Sandford, near Littlemore, Oxon., in 1879
In cutting drains for the Oxford sewage distribution on Mynchery Farm, Sandford, Oxon.. near the Thames, in 1879, four potters' kilns and other Roman remains were discovered, and systematic exploration of the site was then undertaken by the late George Rolleston, F.R.S., Linacre Professor of Physiology, assisted in the work by our Fellow Mr. Heneage Cocks, who studied anatomy under Professor Rolleston, and by the sewage engineers Messrs. Cobbold …
