The York Daily Record - Health & Environment: "York College professor Paul Chang compares the questions this event generated to questions we may face this century because of advancements in drugs, medical sciences, manipulating genes and keeping people alive longer. Chang teaches biopsychology.
Some have predicted this century will be known for biotechnology, he said.
The predicted advancements could create more ethical questions. Questions that will touch other areas of life, not just science, Chang said.

He gave the example of lifespan. If someone knew in their 20s that they could live to be 100 and be vibrant, how would that affect their decision to marry and have children? How would that affect the age they chose to retire?

He pointed to genetic research and public policy. If the government doesn't ease up on its restrictions on embryonic stem cell research, it will lead to an exodus of talent from the country, Chang said. How would that affect the United States in the future?

Ethical questions must be addressed, he said, adding once the technology is in place, the genie is out.

On April 19, Dr. Michael Gazzaniga will present a lecture at York College's DeMeester Theater on 'The Ethical Brain,' which also is the title of one of his books."
