DESCRIPTION: (provided by applicant) The aim of this project is to explore the ethical and legal ramifications of the impending collision between biological and regulatory classifications of population subgroups in American society. The project will examine the interaction between biological categories emerging from the effort to create a haplotype map of the human genome and preexisting categories specifying race and ethnicity embodied in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget's Directive 15, which governs collection of data by all federal agencies and in federally funded research. This two-year project will be led by researchers in the University of Minnesota's Consortium on Law and Values in Health, Environment & the Life Sciences with the collaboration of three Consortium members: the University's Center for Bioethics, Biomedical Genomics Center, and Institute of Human Genetics. The Project will also utilize a Working Group of scholars drawn from across the nation with expertise in law, pharmacology, human genetics, public health, anthropology, environmental health, sociology, and history. The Working Group will convene four times during a two-year period. The major goal of this project is to analyze how the information emerging from haplotype mapping will and should interact with preexisting social categories of race and ethnicity mandated by OMB Directive 15. The project will disseminate its findings through a consensus article, web-based materials, a national conference to be held during its second year, and a published symposium growing out of that conference.

描述：（由申请人提供）该项目的目的是探讨美国社会中人口亚组的生物学和监管分类之间即将发生的碰撞的道德和法律影响。该项目将研究从努力创建人类基因组和先前存在类别的单倍型图中出现的生物学类别之间的相互作用，这些类别指定了美国管理和预算指令15所体现的种族和种族，该指令15，该指令的收集在所有联邦机构和联邦资助的研究中收集。 这项为期两年的项目将由明尼苏达大学的健康，环境和生命科学联盟的研究人员与三个财团成员的合作：大学生物伦理学中心，生物医学基因组学中心和人类遗传学研究所的合作。该项目还将利用来自全国各地的学者的工作组，具有法律，药理学，人类遗传学，公共卫生，人类学，环境健康，社会学和历史的专业知识。工作组将在两年期间四次召开。 该项目的主要目的是分析OMB指令15规定的种族和种族的社会类别，从单倍型映射中出现的信息将如何互动。该项目将通过一份共识文章，基于Web的材料，第二年举行的全国性会议来传播其发现，并在该会议上成长。
