This group project focuses on designer babies and whether they are a positive development for our future or not. We would like you to join us in exploring the positives and negatives of designer babies, some specific examples of designer babies including cases which had the potential to be tragic and others which ended with a hopeful outlook for the future of designer babies, the public opinions of designer babies and the opinions of our peers. We chose this topic as it was something we thought would be interesting to learn more about and through the process of creating our report, presentation, and poster we have been faced with some truly thought-provoking questions and have come to some exceedingly difficult conclusions and opinions. For this reason, we want to welcome you into the magical, scary, slightly science-fiction world of designer babies which we may have to get used to very soon as the potential for designer babies in the next 100 years is growing.
