The relationship between "race" and genetics in biomedical research.

Current hypertension reports - 1 Jun 2007

Torres Jada Benn, Kittles Rick A

Abstract excerpt

The post-human genome sequencing era has presented several daunting challenges for biomedical research. How do we begin to quantify the level of sequence variation that exists within and between human populations? This challenge has serious implications for the enigma called "race," genetic ancestry, group definition, and membership. Another challenge has been the attempt to understand the role DNA sequence...
