What advancements have been made in our  understanding of genetics?  What have we learned about organ donations, stem cells and growing replacement organs.  We cannot talk about all of this without learning about controversial topics and the ethics surrounding genetics.  Lastly we will look at the future of genetics and what new studies are on the horizon.
