Decision-making

A suggestion that "an advisory committee of Chinese and international experts from the fields of genetics, medicine, epidemiology, ethics, and law" be formed and consulted before Chinese regulations for international genetic collaborations now in draft form are made final is put forth (above, Harvard's Xu Xiping and colleagues consulting at the Anhui Institute for Biomedical Science and Environmental Health). The "relaxation response" and its purported therapeutic effects are defended. The role of scientists in setting priorities for the funding of scientific research is explored. And an approach for "a more economical" (for industry) way to regulate airborne particulate matter is described.
