I have done a research paper on genetics and that is my favorite part of 
biology.  I want to go into the science field as a career and I want to 
learn more all the time.  I have seen several different topics--gene 
therapy, genetic engineering, gene splicing--and the information on them 
all seems simliar to me.  I would like to know what the separating factors 
are.  Thank you!
