E03: Genome Wide, Ass Studies

from Disorderland Hosted by By Dr. Ayesha Khan & Jesse Meadows

Ayesha explains what’s wrong with all these genome wide association studies that keep saying they found the ADHD genes (or the schizophrenia genes, or the bipolar genes, or the autism genes..) We also get into the ways that capitalism skews scientific research results, why racists love genetic research so much, and what responsibility scientists have to question their questions.
