The article Brave New Genome is very interesting and raises some very good questions regarding bioethical issues. The articles introduces the topic by giving a brief timeline of events that have taken place in genome mapping over the years. One of the biggest discoveries occurred about ten years ago and scientists found that bacteria cells can be programmed to use DNA to reproduce specific types of genomes. Then in 2013 a scientists Zhang and Church were able to use this information and apply it to animal and human cells. Then next sections of the article discuss how this advancement could be used in therapeutic ways by genetically modifying the genes for diseases such as HIV, blindness, and anemia. As of now, editing the genomes still pose
