Ingenious Baby's video: Designer Babies-Genome Editing - Deleting Genetic Disorders Dr Ellen Jorgensen

For 100 years we have been imagining it in science fiction, but we are now at the point where it may become everyday reality through new technologies such as CRISPR. Talking about genome editing with Dr.Ellen Jorgensen who will discuss how creating designer babies will soon be possible and explore the social, economic, and moral implications of editing our own evolution. Is it really possible to edit the human body before it is born? Will this be morally acceptable for people around the world? Christianity is the largest religious population around the world and Christians believe that people are perfect just the way they are. But what if this huge breakthrough in biotechnology can ease the suffering of different generations of a family line? Check out this interview from the co-founder of Biotech Without Borders. In this interview you will learn: • What is CRISPER technology and how it is used to successfully modify the genetic material of a human embryo. • What are the limits to the types of things you can edit in an embryo (e.g. Is it only things like inherited disease?) • Is there an ability to modify for non-health issues such as IQ, height or athleticism? • Are there countries that are actively pursuing this now? • What are some of the ethical and moral implications of editing human embryos? Will it drastically homogenize and limit the types of people that exist in future, thus resulting in less diversity and uniqueness? • Do we need to be scared? How far away are we from this? • What are some of the positive uses of CRISPR (e.g. eradicating devastating genetic diseases)?
