Research Topic: Does the DNA Make the Human Person Unique?

Overview:

The concept of human nature has over the years been problematic. From the Aristotelian-Thomistic view, the human person is distinguished from any other being because of his rational nature. This view has been challenged today from different angles. The reasons for the challenge vary but the central question remains: who is the human person? What is human nature? The answer to this fundamental question provokes other areas or fields of enquiry. Today more than ever before the scientific explanation of the distinctive characteristic of the human person is interesting.
