It’s been nearly six years since the human genome project was completed. Now that we have a map of nearly 25 thousand base pairs of DNA, what do we do with the information? Dr. Cynthia Powell, chief of UNC-Chapel Hill's Genetics and Metabolism Department of Pediatrics, helps us answer this question. Powell will speak at the Seymour Center later this week on the topic "DNA Testing: Crystal Ball or Weather Forecast?" But first she joins host Frank Stasio for a preview.
