Polygenic risk scoring of human embryos: a qualitative study of media coverage

18 Sept 2021

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Current preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) technologies enable embryo genotyping across the whole genome. This has led to the development of polygenic risk scoring of human embryos (PGT-P). Recent implementation of PGT-P, including screening for intelligence, has been extensively covered by media reports, raising major controversy. Considering the increasing demand for assisted reproduction, we...
