RE: Designer Babies or Create your own child, cure genetic diseases, Cancer...the future? It is close, too close...
Interesting thing you say there is that it will be expensive, well It's not, that's the "problem" and part of it that makes it so revolutionary. But, yeah in some extent new technology is both frightening and exciting.
No, I didn't mean that it will be expensive as such, but my idea was that it will be expensive as a service, because it gives great opportunities, and people will be paying for that.
Also, a possible issue could be that some viruses could be created that will cut out some good parts from genome, something similar to computer viruses - new era in terrorism.
Very interesting points.
This is an idea I never considered about it.... People could in fact do that. The only difficult part is the delivery of required guide and trRNA's.
