Scientists have recently inserted a gene to make a mouse with an increased capacity for learning and memory- basically increasing the mouse's IQ. Normal, average human IQ is around 100, above that is considered highly intelligent while an IQ below 70 is considered to indicate mental disability. In the future, if this treatment could be applied to humans, it could increase IQ by 30 points. A couple has a son with Down's syndrome giving him an IQ of 70. They want to use the therapy to increase his IQ to 100 in order for him to function normally.
This is considered to be gene therapy, where technology is used to help a person function better. A second couple has a son with an IQ of 120. They want to use the technology to bring his IQ up to 150. They feel he would have a better chance of getting into a prestigious university. This is called gene enhancement where technology is used to help a person who is already functioning normally enhance a particular Characteristic.
a. Should this technology be used for gene therapy as in the first couple's situation? Why or why not?
b. Should this technology be used for gene enhancement as in the second couple's situation? Why or why not?
c. Who should get to decide the way in which this technology is used?
Whether it is a genetic or other type of disease. How it is transmitted and manifested. The effects of lifestyle and age on the disease.
