| Résumé : |
Human Genetics: Concepts and Applications embraces the broadening of
human genetics from an academic and medical discipline to an informational
science that can be highly personal, yet have societal impact. By coming to
know genetic backgrounds, people can control their environments in more
healthy ways. Genetic knowledge is, therefore, both informative and
empowering.
Ricki Lewis’s career communicating science began with earning a Ph.D. in
Genetics from Indiana University in 1980. It quickly blossomed into writing
for newspapers and magazines and writing the introductory textbook Life.
Since then, she has taught a variety of life science courses and has
authored the textbook Human Genetics: Concepts and Applications and books
about gene therapy, stem cells, and scientific discovery. She is a genetic
counselor for a large medical practice, teaches a graduate online course in
"Genethics" at Albany Medical College, and writes for Medscape Medical News,
Genetic Literacy Project, Rare Disease Report, and medical journals. Ricki
also writes the popular DNA Science blog at Public Library of Science and is
a frequent public speaker.
