Project Type IQP Submission date 2008-08-27 Authors Conor Michael Fahey, MG Alexander Robert Goudas, ME Joseph Matthew McGeoghan, ME Brian Szpyrka, MG URN E-project-082708-162624 Division Health Care and Technology Title Transgenic Animals Advisor Adams, David S., BB Availability unrestricted Abstract
This project examines transgenic animals in society today. The project details the methods of creating transgenic animals, explores the purpose and reasons they are created, and investigates the legal and ethical dilemmas that stem from this controversial practice. The particular use of each transgenic animal in science served as a prelude to a discussion of ethics. It is clear that the creation and use of transgenic animals, and the accompanying moral and legal debates, show the effect of technology on society. We believe that although animals are jeopardized for human benefit, these benefits are just to great to be ignored and transgenic technology should be allowed to continue.
