The Human Genome Project with an Approach to the Ethical Perspective and Human Freedom

In this research, the results of the Human Genome Project (HGP) and the possible ethical problems it may cause were evaluated through concrete examples. In the study, it has been tried to reveal in detail how the social rights and freedoms, ethics, social norms and values of the individual will be affected and where the borders will begin and end in the event of the potential risks that HGP carries. Discussions have been made on the problem that the individual can be instrumentalized and turned into a commodity as a result of genetic interventions, and unfortunately, it has been determined that genetic interventions are in a structure that can lead to an intervention in the fundamental rights and freedoms of the individual. The aim of this study is to show the usage areas of the human genome project and to examine the results of this project in terms of the ethical consequences of the techniques and applications used.
