Arizona State University CH8 Technology and Reproduction Discussion Paper

 

Option 2: Topic at the top of your post: Technology and reproduction

  1. Drawing from Andre Blair’s TED Talk on Designer Babies, what genetic tool is currently available to edit DNA?
  2. Referencing Chapter 8, what assisted reproductive technologies (ART) are currently available?
  3. What if only the rich could afford these? What if you chose not to use ART or edit your child, but other parents did? Should access to technological options and procedures be available to everyone? If so, how could we do this? Dig into the moral, ethical and societal issues involved here.
