Highlighted claims
- Adult self-modification is harder than embryonic intervention because adult bodies contain tens of trillions of cells. — Programming Life With Synthetic Biology
- Embryonic intervention is easier in principle because a change made at the one-cell stage can be inherited by later cells. — Programming Life With Synthetic Biology
- Embryo selection chooses among existing embryos, while genetic engineering corrects or changes genetic errors. — Programming Life With Synthetic Biology
- In vitro gametogenesis could make eggs or sperm in the laboratory and transform IVF by reducing the egg-supply bottleneck. — Programming Life With Synthetic Biology
- Human enhancement is treated as more ethically difficult than disease correction. — Programming Life With Synthetic Biology
- If IVG makes many eggs cheaply, parents could create and screen many more embryos without gene editing. — Programming Life With Synthetic Biology
