Could anyone give me any hints as to where I can find references on how public policy, i.e. government intervention, has affected technology for molecular biology? I am doing this for an assignment and am planning to focus on the Human Genome initiative. I would like to be as comprehensive as possible and to try to cover even the radiation training and handling of neurotoxins, i.e. acrylamide. Thanx in advance for all your replies. E-mail would be more easily accessed. I will post a summary if there are any requests. Janet C.
