PGT-P & Designer Babies - Where Science Meets Ethics: With Jonathan Anomaly

from FertiliTEA with Dr. D · host FertiliTEA with Dr. D

Advances in reproductive genetics are pushing the boundaries of what's possible and raising profound ethical questions along the way. In this episode, we discuss PGT-P (polygenic embryo screening) and the emerging debate around so-called "designer babies."  We're joined by Jonathan Anomaly from Herasight Genomics to explore the science behind polygenic screening and the moral landscape surrounding it. Together, we discuss how PGT-P works, the potential to reduce disease risk, the controversies around genetic selection, and whether the "designer baby" narrative helps or harms public understanding.   More from Herasight HERE More from Jonathan Anomaly HERE     Follow us on Instagram @fertiliteawithdrd for more fun facts about fertility!
