متن کاملPreimplantation genetic diagnosis and the 'new' eugenics.
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PID) is often seen as an improvement upon prenatal testing. I argue that PID may exacerbate the eugenic features of prenatal testing and make possible an expanded form of free-market eugenics. The current practice of prenatal testing is eugenic in that its aim is to reduce the numbers of people with genetic disorders. Due to social pressures and eugenic attitu...
متن کاملLooking to the future: developments in preimplantation genetic diagnosis
Since the first clinical preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) cycles carried out in 1989, continuous technical improvements have supported progression from what was initially perceived to be an experimental procedure to a widely acceptable alternative to conventional prenatal diagnosis. PGD requires the use of assisted reproductive technology (ART) to create the preimplantation-stage embryo,...
