GABRICH FONSECA FREIRE RAMOS, Ana Virgínia  and  RODRIGUES BELO DA CUNHA, Lorena. Another me: the case of the human chimeras. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2016, n.38, pp.101-117. ISSN 1886-5887.  https://dx.doi.org/10.1344/rbd2016.38.17048.

The chimerism is a rare genetic condition and determines that the individual has two different types of DNA in your body. In a first aspect, the subject matters mainly to the studies of DNA and the human genome, but what is happening is that the phenomenon also has legal repercussions. For this, we present some cases that demonstrate this relationship between chimerism and the law.

Keywords : law; DNA; human genome; chimerism.
