Resumen
LUNA, Florencia. Gene editing and responsibility. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2019, n.47, pp.43-54. Epub 16-Dic-2019. ISSN 1886-5887.
In this article I would like to examine gene editing and its impact on responsibility. I will focus on germ line' research and practice. Though these technologies do not raise novel issues, they make us re-think the scope of traditional responsibility. I will examine responsibility from an individual perspective: for example our role as parents and the impact of our decisions on our descendants. I will also examine responsibility from a collective perspective: scientists should examine how to regulate these technologies. In addition, as a society we should address how these technologies may affect public access to health care, or if groups of patients might be overlooked. We should also think the impact gene editing may have on future generations.
Palabras clave : gene editing; responsibility; germline research; public health system.
