Truth be told, this is a gamble. It is unclear whether such bargaining would result in actual legislation or just leave California gridlocked.

Altshuler said it remains unclear how fruitful this approach to studying disease will be, adding that he is open-minded and optimistic. Using the same approach, he said, researchers have identified a gene for a common form of blindness. The HapMap also has implications for the study of evolution and natural selection. Pardis C.
