Title
Genetic Data From Over 20,000 U.S. Children Misused for ‘Race Science’
Abstract
Genetic researchers were seeking children for an ambitious, federally funded project to track brain development — a study that they told families could yield invaluable discoveries about DNA’s impact on behavior and disease. They also promised that the children’s sensitive data would be closely guarded. The scientists did not keep it safe.
