‘Designer babies’ debate should start, scientists say

“Rapid progress in genetics is making “designer babies” more likely and society needs to be prepared, leading scientists have told the BBC.

Dr. Tony Perry, a pioneer in cloning, has announced precise DNA editing at the moment of conception in mice.

He said huge advances in the past two years meant “designer babies” were no longer HG Wells territory.

Other leading scientists and bioethicists argue it is time for a serious public debate on the issue.

Designer babies – genetically modified for beauty, intelligence or to be free of disease – have long been a topic of science fiction.

“This is not HG Wells, you can imagine people doing this soon.” Dr .Tony Perry, University of Bath

Dr. Perry, who was part of the teams to clone the first mice and pigs, said the prospect was still fiction, but science was rapidly catching up to make elements of it possible.”

The fireworks inside us all

The cells contain the chromosomes, which house the DNA, which house the genes….which house the genetic information. Information is neither mass, nor energy, like all of the above. So where does the information come from?  — Convergence of Truth contributing writer comments
