Reproductive Embryo Editing: Attending to Justice
The use of embryonic genome editing tools is often touted as a way to ensure the birth of healthy and genetically related children. Many would agree that this is a worthy goal.

| Riepilogo: | The use of embryonic genome editing tools is often touted as a way to ensure the birth of healthy and genetically related children. Many would agree that this is a worthy goal.

This is so because there are safer and more effective means that can allow many more prospective parents to achieve the same valued goal and that can offer additional benefits. |
