Since sequencing the human genome, genetic researchers have searched

intensively but unearthed little evidence to suggest that inherited

genes cause common diseases.... "

" The case for a substantial role of genes in susceptibility to the major

human diseases is now scientifically refuted argues a groundbreaking new

analysis published by the public interest science organization, The

Bioscience Resource Project.

The analysis stems from the repeated failure of a new and

comprehensive genome scanning method (called Genome-Wide Association

studies, GWA studies) to find important human disease genes...
