Even more genetic gee-wizardry lies just down the road. Using biochips--thumbnail-size pieces of material imprinted with hundreds of different DNA probes--scientists should be able to identify genetic errors almost as quickly as a supermarket scanner prices a load of groceries. In some systems, the probes use different fluorescent dyes that glow under laser light when they hook up with target genes, allowing sensors to tabulate the results automatically. Genetic researchers are already talking about using "FISH [for fluorescent in-situ hybridization] and chips," as they whimsically call these new tools, to look for any number...
