Genetic Engineering and Society, Lecture 1a, Honors Collegium 70A, UCLA
Course Description: Honors Collegium 70A: Genetic Engineering in Medicine, Agriculture, & Law is a class that examines the historical and scientific study of genetic engineering in medicine, agriculture, and law, including examination of social, ethical, and legal issues raised by new technology. About the Professor: Bob Goldberg is a plant molecular biologist who specializes in the area of plant gene expression. The goal of his research has been to understand how plant cells differentiate and how genes are activated selectively in specialized cell types during plant development. He has received UCLA Distinguished Teaching Awards from the Department of Biology and the Department of Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology, and was awarded the all-campus Luckmann Distinguished Teaching Award from the Academic Senate.

Ask The Experts About Genetic Counselors
Donna asks…
how can genetic counselors help with autism can they?
i am doing a school assignment and this might help
admin answers:
I’m not sure but my thought is that if you know that your child is likely to inherit the genes that cause autism, you’d be better prepared to cope with it. Autistic children benefit greatly from early intervention. From what I understand, autism has only recently been proved to be a genetic disease and it’s primarily passed down on the male side of the family. Again, I’m no professional… Hope I helped. Good luck.
