X-WR-CALDESC:On Friday\, January 31st we will host a symposium on prenatal 
 testing and disability.  The purpose of the panel is to spark new conversa
 tions about the way we use prenatal testing\, and to consider the way our 
 culture views disability.  For some\, disability is analogous to disease –
  something to be avoided and if possible\, perhaps eradicated.  This sympo
 sium will present an alternative viewpoint\, namely that disability is a n
 atural part of the human condition\, and an important form of diversity.  
 The discussion for this panel will focus very specifically on Down syndrom
 e\, as there is new prenatal testing that allows fairly accurate prenatal 
 diagnosis of Down syndrome with a simple blood test at 10-11 weeks gestati
 on.  However\, the broader issues are relevant to all forms of disability\
 , and even to other characteristics that parents might select for (or agai
 nst).
