Genetics Videos from The New York Times

by Hsien Hsien Lei, PhD on September 3rd, 2006

Thanks to reader “Genetics,” I learned of videos at The New York Times including these on genetics:

Embryo Screening - “The Times’s Amy Harmon talks about the increasingly common practice of the embryo screening procedure known as PGD. (Producer: Erik Olsen)”
The Genetics of Aging - “Scientists are trying to determine whether genes can account for the exceptional health and longevity of 92-year-old twin Josephine Tesauro. (Producer: Shayla Harris)”
Genes and Self-Image - “The discovery of genes that seem to influence everything from obesity to addiction is changing the way people feel about themselves, The Times’s Amy Harmon reports. (Producer: Craig Duff)”
Discovering Your Origins - “The Times’s Amy Harmon reports on the use of genetic tests to influence everyday lives. (Produced by Matthew Orr)”

Enjoy!

Update: Erik Olsen of the New York Times sent me the proper links to the videos. Sorry for any confusion!
