The Human Pangi Non Project Is Taking Further Measures to Insure Ethical Use of Genetic Data

The human pangi non project is taking further measures to insure ethical collection and use of genetic data. Many of the 350 people whose genomes will be analyzed participated in the one thousand genomes projects, an effort launched in two thousand and eight to catalogue common and rare variants from 26 diverse populations. The consent forms that those individuals signed years ago also cover the use of their d and a data for the new project. Scientists are trying to overcome the ethically thorny legacy of past endeavors.
