ABSTRACT

In less than 50 years the way has been crossed from the identification of the structure of the DNA to the attainment of the human project genome. It can be this very fast to the foreseeable rate or, on the contrary very slow, and means century are a space of time very expanded, that could have shortened if it had been acted with a predetermined plan, supported by a political and economic decision, until obtaining the sequences of the genome of the human DNA. That attitude we could take before this molecule of the life as were called initially. That attitude we could take before this molecule of the life as were called initially. One is due to deal with great respect to be the carrying structure of the genes and the human inheritance, or to use it like a chemical molecule but, that there is to explode economically for good of the humanity and to obtain patents... which is a risk.
The human genome must contribute to the well-being of the humanity in prevention of the disease and promotion of the health, like element of a preventive medicine, the recent knowledge in epilepsy where has been a great influence of the genetics.
