DOE HGP Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) Funding Available
Notice 98-19
http://www.er.doe.gov/production/grants/fr98_19.html
Topic: Research that addresses, analyzes, or anticipates ELSI issues associated with the use of information and knowledge emanating from the Human Genome Project. DOE particularly encourages research into the privacy of genetic information in the workplace; access to and protection of stored genetic information; development and dissemination of educational materials to enhance understanding of ELSI issues related to genomics; and ELSI implications of advances in the scientific understanding of complex or multigenic conditions, gene-environment interactions, and human polymorphisms.
