The future of reproduction

Thirty years ago Louise Brown, the world's first test-tube baby, was born in a clinic in Manchester. The newspaper Information risks a look at what the future holds: "The birth of Louise Brown revolutionised mankind's possibilities for reproduction in a way that no one could have foreseen at the time. ... According to Nature magazine, genetic engineering will allow us to transform skin cells into egg cells and sperm and create artificial wombs. This means that by the time Louise Brown is 60, infertility will be a thing of the past and women who are a 100 years old will be able to have children. The current debate about designer babies seems naïve in view of these possibilities. The prospect may seem frightening, and it may be hard to resist the urge to reject these developments if the whole thing gets too complicated. We are nostalgic ... for the past and romanticising a life lived in harmony with the laws of nature. But we forget that nature is actually about constant change and that the revolution in reproductive technology, including genetic engineering and stem cell research, also offers fantastic potential for improving our life here on Earth."
