AnnotationGenetics and bioethics are issues at the forefront of media interest. Disabled people are directly affected, yet they have been excluded from the current debate and are mainly unaware of the issues. This seminar aimed to change this situation, to give disabled people a voice, and improve their knowledge on concerns such as quality of life issues affecting medical decisions, in particular on genetic testing.
