1. What U.S. companies are the leaders in genetic editing research?
- This question interests me because it is important to know where the research is coming from and who is doing the research that could lead to genetic editing and designer babies. Knowing the companies and people involved could help find people commenting on the issue and get closer to the source. This could also help narrow down the research once I find the leading company. I can start to find articles that specifically mention these groups and incorporate the research into my public speech act.
2. Who are some major figures that have made public speech acts on designer babies?
- In the last project I got a taste of a form of public speech, but I would love to look at other genres to give ideas for my own public speech. I am curious if similar ideas and arguments are discussed in different examples. I have a very biased view of successful arguments and need to see a variety of them before I formulate my own. It is important to analyze how people are currently communicating on the topic to understand how I should go about writing my own public speech.
3. How does the cost of gene editing and designer babies affect the gap between wealthy and poor, why could this technology be an issue for differentiating American's by socioeconomic status?
- This issue was mentioned by one of the sources in the article that I analyzed in for Project 2. This is an issue that is not discussed in the typical for and against arguments for designer babies. I am very interested in looking deeper into the economic aspect of designer babies and how it affects the different societal classes. This will be a great question to explore because there are few opinions and articles published on it so I will be adding something to the subject.
