Edición del genoma: ¿sin objeciones éticas?
- Michael Cook
- 8 / 08 / 2018
El principal instituto de bioética del Reino Unido ha dado luz verde a la modificación intergeneracional del genoma humano. En un importante estudio sobre los problemas éticos y prácticos involucrados en la edición del genoma y la reproducción humana, el Consejo Nuffield sobre Bioética ha concluido que es "moralmente aceptable", siempre que, por supuesto, sea seguro.
"Consideramos que la edición del genoma no es moralmente inaceptable en sí misma", dijo la profesora Karen Yeung, presidenta del grupo de trabajo que produjo el informe. "En principio, no hay ninguna razón para descartarlo".
La profesora Jackie Leach Scully, de la Universidad de Newcastle, coautora del informe, dijo a The Guardian que la edición de los aspectos hereditarios del genoma podría convertirse en una opción para que los padres "intenten asegurar lo que entienden es el mejor comienzo en la vida" para sus futuros hijos.
Una vez más, el Reino Unido está abriendo nuevos caminos en materia de ética. Si bien el informe Nuffield tiene carácter consultivo, la mayoría de sus recomendaciones sobre temas similares finalmente se han convertido en ley en el Reino Unido. Por esta razón, esta opinión dirigida al gobierno británico adquiere importancia mundial.
Por supuesto, las conclusiones del informe fueron inmediatamente criticadas, y de hecho ningún gobierno ha autorizado una tal modificación del genoma. El Dr. David King, Director de Human Genetics Alert, le dijo a la BBC: "Esto es una vergüenza absoluta. Hemos mantenido durante 30 años prohibiciones internacionales sobre la ingeniería genética eugenésica. Pero este grupo de científicos cree saber más sobre el tema, aunque no disponen de base alguna para sus afirmaciones. El Consejo Nuffield ni siquiera se molesta en negarse a decir no a los bebés de diseño. La población de Gran Bretaña decidió hace 15 años que no quieren comida GM. ¿Crees que quieren bebés genéticamente modificados?”
Marcy Darnovsky, del Centro de Genética y Sociedad, en California, comentó que el informe reconocía que, si se permitía la edición de genes reproductivos, se utilizaría para fines de mejora y cosméticos. "Ellos prescinden de la pretensión habitual de que esto podría - o, en su opinión, debería - ser prevenido. Reconocen que esto puede incrementar la desigualdad y la división social, pero no consideran que ello debería obstaculizar el camino. En términos prácticos, han tendido una alfombra roja para el uso irrestricto de la ingeniería genética heredable, y una edad dorada en la que algunos son tratados como "poseedores" genéticos y el resto como "desposeídos".
Los argumentos éticos a favor de modificar el genoma se exponen con cierto detalle en la versión extensa del informe. Fundamentalmente, parecen descansar en el rechazo del "esencialismo genómico": que el genoma define a una persona. El informe dice que "la intervención genómica es solo una -y probablemente no la más importante- de las decisiones que los padres tomarán para afectar a su descendencia (y puede volverse progresivamente menos importante a medida que otros factores vitales intervienen, especialmente en el desarrollo del yo -identidad)."
Continúa preguntándose si "la edición del genoma de la descendencia puede constituir una violación de la dignidad humana". La respuesta es que "no encontramos útil el concepto de dignidad humana en este contexto. Desde nuestro punto de vista, aquello que es moralmente importante para los seres humanos no depende de la posesión de un conjunto particular de variaciones genómicas: encontramos que el concepto de "genoma humano" carece de coherencia en cualquier caso".
Aquello que es moralmente importante para los seres humanos no es un tema que el informe discuta con mayor detalle.

Thinking about it, in virtual betting, I’ve come to see that the latest platforms are shifting how we play slots . Honestly, it seems like the payouts are often totally volatile, which is why careful budget control is vitally crucial these days . By the way, I stumbled upon this cool review page https://telegra.ph/Une-Approche-Prudence-pour-les-Gains-sur-afkspin-%C3%89vitant-de-Tout-Perdre-06-08
https://telegra.ph/Une-Approche-Prudence-pour-les-Gains-sur-afkspin-%C3%89vitant-de-Tout-Perdre-06-08 where people discuss different tactical systems, and it has really helpful to keep my losses low . Something I regularly advise myself is to avoid trying to run after bad runs, because that’s usually when things turns bad. Recently, I’ve also been thinking if the stream croupier tables genuinely give a better chance compared to classic RNG versions. How do you all feel about that, and did you noticed any reliable trends lately ? Let’s get a debate going below !

Thinking back in virtual gambling, I’ve recently observed that modern sites are shifting the way we experience games . In my opinion, it feels that the odds are often quite unpredictable, which proves that proper bankroll management matters most nowadays . Anyway, I checked out this cool resource https://telegra.ph/Authentique-savoir-faire-et-casino-en-ligne-fiable-pour-une-exp%C3%A9rience-optimale-06-08

A major point I always tell newbies is to never track losses , because that’s usually how everything goes wrong . Recently, I’ve also started questioning if the live dealer options actually provide a more authentic chance compared to standard digital versions. What’s your take on this whole thing, do you stick to slots or cards ? Would love to start a here in this thread!

Thinking over my time with virtual gaming, I’ve observed that the latest platforms have completely transformed the method we experience tables.

One thing I constantly tell newbies is to avoid trying to track bad runs, because it’s almost always when things gets messy . Lately, I’ve also been thinking whether the real-time dealer tables genuinely provide a better chance than regular digital versions. How do you all feel about that, and did you noticed any solid trends recently? Let’s get a debate going below !
