N2  - Science is delving into genetics more deeply and thoroughly than ever before, and in the process, scientists are uncovering new layers of "truth" about the essence of humanity and human disease. But in a social world colored by inequalities and value judgments that place some members of humanity above others, to what degree is genome science codifying ideology in our very genes? Thirty secondary interviews with genome researchers from various subfields are analyzed to determine the extent to which the ideology of "race" enters their discourse on genome variation. Findings suggest that unexamined and unrecognized racial thinking is an integral part of genetic researchers' interpretations and understandings of genetic variation.<p />
