[00:01.45]3 How is the discovery of the human genome
[00:04.96]going to affect our lives in the next ten
[00:06.64]or twenty years?
[00:08.47]In Science Today we're going to analyse
[00:10.49]some of the data that has come out
[00:11.69]of a study recently published
[00:12.86]in The New England Journal of medicine.
[00:15.10]It reveals some of the possibilities
[00:16.86]for biotechnology and particularly their impact
[00:19.29]on medicine.We will also discuss some of
[00:21.67]the many ethical issues which have come out
[00:23.04]of the latest discoveries in this field.
[00:26.99]4 OK, next question.
[00:29.31]Could you tell me the name of the scientist
[00:30.94]who discovered two new radioactive elements,
[00:33.02]radium and polonium?
[00:35.02]This scientist was laer responsible
[00:36.84]for developing the process
[00:38.58]of producing radioactivity artificially
[00:40.49]for the first time.
[00:41.60]By the way, this is the only scientist
[00:43.59]to have ever been given two Nobel prizes,
[00:45.50]one for physics and another for chemistry.
[00:48.61]Marie Curie. Correct!
