The elucidation of the structure of DNA in the 1950s, the discovery of restriction enzymes in the 1960s, the acquisition of molecular cloning and DNA sequencing techniques in the 1970s and the knowledge gained from the Human Genome Project in the 1980s have changed dramatically the scope and breadth of biomedical research. It has moved far beyond its traditional frontiers to the point where it penetrates deeply into the intricate web of life and now, it is playing a key role both in the discovery and commercial development of new biological products.;It does appear however, that biomedical education has not advanced as much as biomedical research. This, in turn, leaves an enormous gap in the literatures in this very important area. This book, therefore, is an attempt to fill the existing gap in taught subjects especially from genetic engineering point of view. The book provides a well-planned framework for a broad spectrum of emerging technologies at the interface between medicinal, forensic and pharmaceutical sciences and gene technology. It also highlights the bioethical, legal, safety and public acceptance issues. In addition, it includes outlines and topics to be studied within every technology. Furthermore, it contains a guide for the universities around the world which are actively involved in biomedical research.;This book, therefore, should be valuable to students who are aiming at under-or post-graduate degrees in biomedical discipline and teachers, lecturers, researchers and educationists who are involved in biomedical education policy and curriculum development.;;Contents;Chapter 1: Medical Science; Human genome project-genetic disease diagnostic aspect, Gene therapy, Biotechnology of reproductive medicine, Xenotransplantation; Chapter 2: Forensic Science; DNA fingerprinting technology, PCR and its applications; Chapter 3: Pharmaceutical Science; Medicinal plant biotechnology, Transgenic animal technology, Hybridoma technology, Protein engineering technology, Recombinant and synthetic vaccines, Bioinformatics; Chapter 4: Bioethics, Legal, Safety and Public Acceptance Issues.
