Chemical & Engineering News: Government & Policy - Francis Collins Leaves NIH

Chemical & Engineering News: Government & Policy - Francis Collins Leaves NIH: "August 4, 2008, Volume 86, Number 31,
pp. 33-35

Francis Collins Leaves NIH
After 15 years at the helm, Genomics Institute Director steps down
by Susan R. Morrissey"

This was an interesting article about Francis Collins that brought a bunch of questions to mind, questions to which I would welcome answers from anyone. Viz.:

How does the Human Genome Project benefit the developing world physically as opposed to intellectually (health versus genetic history and origins)?

What needs to be studied that is not being?

What doors does this open for the developing world?

Where's the opportunity?

What ideas or actions should Chemists Without Borders be promoting?
