LEGENDS
is a program to inform the public about
genetic and environmental factors in
disease, and to discuss the social
implications of genetic research and
genetic testing. The LEGENDS curriculum
includes material from environmental
health, toxicology, epidemiology, and
human genetics. The information on
environmental and genetic interactions
in disease is presented as case
studies. In addition, the project
addresses important public policy issues
regarding the ethical, legal, and social
implications of genetic research and
genetic testing.
