The topic for the qualifying problem is Genetic Testing:

Scientists are currently looking into the genetic testing of
humans so that we will know if we are genetically prone to obesity, smoking,
violence, etc. Examples: If health insurance companies know that you will
become obese and need lots of treatment they will charge you more (even if you
found this out and have started eating better, etc.) If you are prone to
violence, you may be monitored. Both of these examples are scary to think
about, but the even scarier thought is that these situations are starting to
occur.
