Introduction
This session pulls from three different sources to study the ethical problems brought about by advanced biotechnologies. These sources include a research paper by Alexander Kremer, a video version of the article published in a journal, and a YouTube movie. By reading these materials, we hope to collect the evaluation of cutting-edge biotechnology advancements.
Ethical Dilemmas in Biotechnologies: A Comprehensive View
It is stated in the film that contemporary biotechnologies cause several complex ethical concerns (Johnson, 2022). Given the expansive nature of the subject matter, which encompasses artificial intelligence and genetic engineering, ethical issues about manipulating life’s fundamental components have been brought to light. An insightful summary of the moral difficulties that are presented by modern technology is shown in the graphic book.
Analyzing Ethical Frameworks: Insights from Academic Perspectives
A research study undertaken at Eastern Kentucky University, Encompass (n.d.), examines every relevant ethical theory that might influence the future growth of biotechnologies. The possible effects of deontological, utilitarian, and virtue-based frameworks on biotech moral evaluations have been much studied. Think about the potential consequences of biotech advances in light of the strong ethical basis of this essay. When deontological principles stress conformity to social standards, virtue ethics emphasizes cultivating moral character when making decisions. Incorporating utilitarian viewpoints also makes it possible to evaluate society’s overall well-being. By carefully analyzing these frameworks, the inquiry deepens our comprehension of the ethical foundations that sustain the progress of biotechnologies. This platform offers a solid foundation for carefully and rationally assessing these changes.
Case Study: Alexander Kremer’s Perspective
Through the presentation of a case study that addresses ethical dilemmas in the biotechnology industry, the academic work of Alexander Kremer contributes to the enrichment of the conversation (Kremer, n.d.). When Kremer examines the ethical problems brought about by the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, he brings attention to the possible consequences and responsibilities associated with modifying human DNA. This case study provides a practical framework that can be used to make sense of the ethical challenges presented.
Synthesis and Critical Reflection
According to Johnson (2022), Encompass (n.d.), and Kremer (n.d.), the film, the academic paper, and the scholarly research all lead to the same thing: the growth of biotechnologies presents a plethora of challenging ethical problems. In addition to providing an upbeat and inviting beginning, the movie also explains the moral issues. The academic component is responsible for laying the theoretical basis, but Kremer’s case study is where these discoveries are put into reality.
Conclusion
To consider the moral consequences of biotech developments, one must thoroughly grasp the subject. To help the reader understand the problems and changes that these achievements have caused, we have included academic writing, a video, and scientific facts. To manage the complex ethical landscape of biotechnologies and promote responsible innovation in this rapidly changing sector, it is necessary to examine many viewpoints thoroughly. A sophisticated understanding of the many ethical challenges is attained by combining scholarly investigation, a practical case study, and a visual story. This complex picture exemplifies the ethical challenges that emerge when we experiment with artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing, or any method that alters the building blocks of life. Acquiring thorough information from many sources is crucial in the ever-changing area of biotechnology. This will enable informed debate and ethical decision-making.
