From the author: Les biobanques, traditionnellement sources de tissus, ont ete redefinies comme des depositaires de materiaux genetiques. Elles ont ete entrainees dans le mouvement vers la genomique et sont passees de modestes depositaires de collections d'echantillons de tissus tres documentees et locales a des ressources bioinformatiques a grande echelle, ayant une etendue nationale ou supranationale. Les dossiers contenus dans ces nouvelles biobanques ont pour but de lier la clinique, le cours de la vie et l'environnement a l'information genetique au niveau des populations et sont, par consequent, des infrastructures importantes liant les genes a la societe. Dans cette etude portant sur deux biobanques semblables, les auteurs se sont concentres sur les metaphores utilisees dans differents discours pour discuter de ces initiatives et analysent la facon dont les biobanques deviennent des lieux pour comprendre les questions associees aux biomedias.

Book Description
Zilinskas and Balint and their contributors examine the divisions between minority groups and the scientific community, particularly in the area of medical and genetic research. Minorities have reasons to be skeptical of medical research in general and genetics research in particular. The sad history of the Tuskegee experiment, in which black men with syphilis were left untreated so that the course of the disease could be studied, undermined confidence in the ethics of medical researchers. More recently, publication of The Bell Curve reanimated controversy over purported genetic distinctions among the races that could have powerfully negative social implications. In contrast, as the essays make clear, the Human Genome Project, conducted in accordance with the highest ethical standards, has the potential to make dramatic positive contributions to the health of all human beings. Members of minority communities in particular--who statistically are at high risk of adverse health outcomes in the United States--have much to gain from innovative medical diagnostics and therapies that will result from the study of human genetics. Therefore, if we are to benefit fully from this new knowledge, it is vital that the distrust, skepticism, and misconceptions relating to genetics research be overcome. This is a provocative collection for scholars, students, researchers, and community leaders involved with minority and public health issues. ... Read more
