Notes

  1. A few stylistic changes have been made in the text ofthe statements to make them clearer.
  2. . Recent work with Drosophila suggests, however, that gene expression may be tissue specific.
  3. . This was perhaps the most controversial recommendation formulated at the conference. It is one with which the authors are not in complete agreement. Engelhardt would prefer not to have the commission be a “continuing” commission. Davis thinks that existing local review boards in hospitals could handle the problems likely to come up, leaving a commission with no job to do; however, if major new ethical problems arose, a national commission could be established to formulate policy that could be employed by local boards.
