遗传学的发展及其社会伦理问题的思考
Reflections on the Development of Genetics and Social Ethics
-
摘要: 讲述3个方面:第一,遗传学研究者自始至终把基因作为研究对象,一部遗传学史,就是人们对基因实体性认识不断深化的历史;第二,在分子遗传学高度发展基础上,科学形态的遗传学转化成技术形态的生物技术,作为一种活跃的生产力走向了产业化道路;第三,生物技术的发展充分显示新技术犹如双刃剑的两面性和对社会伦理的冲击与挑战,对社会提出了新课题。Abstract: The follwing three aspects are considered. First, gene has been regarded as the research objective and a history of genetics is the history of further understanding of the substantiality of the gene. Second, based on the highly developed molecular genetics, the genetics of scientific morphology is changed into the biological technology of technological morphology. And third, the development of the biological technology sufficiently shows the dual character of the new technology as a two-bladed sword, and its impact and challenge on the social ethics, which puts forward a new problem of society.
