I have been known to call fashion magazines "Brain Candy" - happily and easily consumed instead of other reading material that may be a bit more informational or challenging for our brains. If fashion magazines are brain candy, this Ted Talk is brain vegetables. It's about all the awesomeness, potential awfulness and general ethical considerations of genomic research, where it's going, and what it means for us long term. Richard Resnick does a great job, in eleven minutes, of addressing some (but not all) of the moral quandaries I have every day, sitting in one of the three DNA sequencing centers in the country. Enjoy!
