Racial Categories in Medicine: A Failure of Evidence-Based Practice?

19 Sept 2007

Abstract excerpt

Our projects examining the use of racial and ethnic categories in genetics and biomedical research have been supported by three grants from the Wellcome Trust's Biomedical Ethics Research Programme: 057182 (GTHE); 057180 (RA); and 073524/2/03/2/AW/HH (AS, PM, RA, and GTHE).
