Genetic disorders kill people very day, and without research, people would not know the diseases that they might carry, “Testing is just one piece of the genomic revolution.” (Kalb 150). Before the engineering can even begin, testing must happen first. Research and testing would allow doctors to, “identify patients with a propensity for a particular disease and give them a chance to take measures to avoid getting sick.” (Biotechnology 16). Meaning that patients would know if they carry the gene for a certain disease and could take action against the disease before it caused permanent damage. Genetic research, much like Stem Cell Research, would allow patients to know what they, or even their children could be carrying, and would allow doctors a way to begin to create a cure or a drug, because of that, genetic research and experimentation can help save lives
