The Stored Tissue Issue Summary

The Stored Tissue Issue: Biomedical research, ethics and law in the era of genomic medicine by Robert F Weir (University of Iowa)

This book provides a thorough, well-balanced analysis of common research practices with banked tissues, DNA, and genetic data. Describing many examples of beneficial tissue research, the authors focus on problematic research practices, controversial cases, and federal and institutional policies that limit the informed choices of patients and research participants. They offer a series of recommendations to help overcome these problems.

The Stored Tissue Issue Reviews

Each member of Ethical Committees, Public Health Officers and Policy Making, lawyers engaged in health problems should read the book. Recommended also for medical personnel engaged in research and genetics. * Pediatric Endocrinology Reviews, Vol 2, No 3 *
. . . a welcome addition to existing works not only because it is an accessible and thorough analysis, which reflects the expertise of the authors, but also because of its pragmatic approach to the issues. * The Lancet Neurology, Vol 3 *
