The Medicalization of Race
|
The Human Genome Project concluded that 99.9% of the human genome is identical, irrespective of race. In this special edition of The Tavis Smiley Show we'll challenge the traditional notions of race, their impact on culture and community as well as the implications and importance of biomedical research moving forward. It's a special roundtable discussion with physicians and researchers on The Medicalization of Race.
For this conversation Tavis was joined by four leaders in diverse fields of medicine, anthropology, biology and even biopharmaceutical sciences. Dr. Michael J. Montoya of UC Irvine, Dr. Esteban González Burchard of UC San Francisco, Dr. Yolanda T. Moses, of UC Riverside and Dr. Pragna Patel, of USC.
