On this episode of StarTalk Radio, we explore the world of bioethics. Neil deGrasse Tyson, comic co-host Paul Mecurio, and NYU bioethicist, author, and philosopher Matthew Liao answer fan-submitted Cosmic Queries about bioethical dilemmas, artificial intelligence, human experimentation, and much more.
To start, Matthew gives us a proper definition of bioethics. Matthew tells us whether he thinks he acts more ethically just because he’s a bioethicist…or if he’s actually even less ethical. Find out the importance of measuring trust in bioethical issues, and examine the moral limits of scientific experimentation. Learn more about “The Belmont Report,” the infamous “The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male,” and the horrific experimentation done by the Nazis.
Matthew explains why getting vaccinated is a part of our public duty. Discover more about “threshold deontology” and whether the limits of human experimentation are stagnant or if they change over time. Neil brings up The Secret of Santa Vittoria, and we examine the film’s bioethical themes.
Next, we ponder if DNA and gene editing will continue to grow and develop in our society. Is CRISPR a good thing? We discuss “designer babies” and modifying personalities. You’ll learn if there are any regulatory committees to oversee this field, and Matthew tells us how we will have to navigate the repercussions of genetic inequality if the field continues to grow. He also tells us what his factors are in deciding what’s good and bad when it comes to modifying organisms genetically.
You’ll also hear how religion and natural law fits into the bioethics discussion. We explore the dangers of introducing artificial intelligence into the field of medicine, and whether there will be less need for doctors with the rise in AI technology. All that, plus, we debate if there will ever be attempts to combine human DNA with animal DNA.

I think they could have delve deeper into the Tuskegee report and what the German scientist did during the 30's & 40's . Because what wasn't spoken about was that the Nazis information that was found out by doing these unethical tests were used by the world afterwards . Also during the Tuskegee report where Doctor employed by our government ( The United States OF America) . Tested on humans , that was law abiding citizens of their country , and only being tied with each other through location , Race , Economic status ( Poor) , and Educational Status . Not only did they allow Syphilis to exist in the test subject , they also allowed him or her to affect there spouses , girlfriends or boyfriend's . Until the entire community was stricken with this disease , A curable disease by this time . The only thing that stopped this test was World War 2 ! When This same government began recruiting and drafting these same young men to fight and die for thier ,( our country) . They found that a large abnormal amount of these men were all coming in with syphilis ! So much so that the Army put a spot light on what was happening there , which outted the program and finally put a stop to it . The last case being a man who was part of the study who died due to complications of the long term affection with syphilis in the late 50's .. This was a very dark time for this country and what it did to her citizens or to human beings period . What's really shocking is that you won't find this in a school book or ever hear a teacher bring this up in class , unless you're in a very progressive school . So history if not known is doomed to repeat it self , over and over and over ... Where is the new Tuskegee study now ?? And what part of our government is funding it ? Instead of using Doctor's as they did before are they now using the police force ?? Sounds crazy , unbelievable even. But if someone was to say 10 yrs. Ago that a black man would be murdered in broad day light by a Officer of the law in the function of his duty , by placing his knee to his neck until he stopped breathing , then put cuffs on him and then put him in a emergency vehicle, after death ? Then you multiply that incident a dozen times over across the country in just a 2 yr. Period , I would have never believed it , but here we are , and there it is , for the world to see ...

It's not really that complicated, for some things at least. If you have the technological power to eliminate NEGATIVE, and i mean objectively NEGATIVE aspecs of a human body, then it is objectively ethically wrong to choose NOT to eliminate those negatives. I'm talking about cancer, alzheimers, even aging itself. Any "flaw" in the human genome that leads to death and suffering, is by definition ethical to fight against. Because we're for the protection of life.

I agree with the above statement. Detrimental effects should be 'edited' out of our Genes ( such as Cancer, and other gene related illnesses ) when and if we gain the knowledge to do so. But on the other hand, selectively editing for specific traits (blue eyes, blonde hair, etc) is unethical and should have a set of rules, guidelines, and 'laws' against such manipulation of Genes. In a manner of speaking, I am 'for' the genetic 'lottery' which promotes gene mutations and can result in new traits that may be beneficial to our species, but I am 'against' gene manipulation that narrows the chances for such beneficial gene creations. I do not feel we will be competent to take our evolution into our own hands for at least hundreds, if not thousands of years yet.

Males no longer wear high heels to look taller, to be more 'masculine', etc. So, beauty and ugliness are subject to what the current era thinks is good, or bad looking.

21:38 While he is undoubtably larger than the average person due to the influence of his genes, his ability to begin and continue to fulfill a very influential social role which necessitates exercise is a major aspect to his reign on the court. I also find it fascinating when there are forms of statistical or scientific discrimination which people break through, sometimes resulting in a new edge that they have on the competition. I think that this was the case with Usain Bolt's irregular height- which likely was a negative influence until people starting realizing his unique advantage.

Comet Encke or Encke's Comet (official designation: 2P/Encke) is a periodic comet that completes an orbit of the Sun once every 3.3 years. (This is the shortest period of a reasonably bright comet; the faint main-belt comet 311P/PANSTARRS has a period of 3.2 years.) Encke was first recorded by Pierre Méchain in 1786, but it was not recognized as a periodic comet until 1819 when its orbit was computed by Johann Franz Encke; like Halley's Comet, it is unusual in being named after the calculator of its orbit rather than its discoverer. Like most comets, it has a very low albedo, reflecting only 4.6% of the light it receives. The diameter of the nucleus of Encke's Comet is 4.8 km.[ Inclination 11.76° Massive meteor lights up St. Louis sky kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jsuXmc-Hta6Vpo0.html The R33 is a provincial route in South Africa that connects Pietermaritzburg with Lephalale via Greytown, Paulpietersburg, Carolina, Belfast and Vaalwater.

25:50 Eugenics was also proposed by Plato in The Republic and he provided the same arguments for it: if we breed animals to make their population more desirable, why shouldn't we do this for humans as well. 30:53 I'll have to disagree with you on that one. Because there is no such thing as the perfect person, or at least not in any clearly definable sense. No matter how many traits you think of breeding into your designed baby there's still going to be that one thing you didn't think about. And because of the complex and unpredictable nature of life even the most enhanced human is still going to face challenges in life. Sure, the challenges they face are going to be on a totally different level, but they will have challenges to overcome. Only a perfect being can design a perfect being, and since the designer is human we can agree, I hope, that they are not perfect. So the engineered baby won't be perfect either.

Mix a plant and a lizard and you'll have yourself a Bulbasaur. It's also the first Pokémon in the numerical order they're put in, but not the first Pokemon to be designed in real life or the first to be discovered in-universe.

Genetics are just information, it can be manipulated just like any other piece of information. Therefore a good rule of thumb is to treat it with any ethic that you would with any other piece of information.

Uhhh...but if I lose a file on my computer, or name it with the wrong convention, I’m not going to potentially kill myself or others. There is a difference between “any other information” and “genetic information” in this context.

@@scoobertmcruppert2915 I see where you are coming from. you are advocating that the carrier of the information is just as important as the information itself. to which I would say NO.

Bioethics on the PR side wouldn't be as rocky if almost all governments made education a political question rather than one of efficiency or, gasp! enriching oneself and in so doing enriching the community.

If we don't change our priorities with this new tech, we won't be alive long enough to see designer babies graduate. I'm trying to have a habitable future. I don't care what the people around me look like, just restore the ecosystems.

Neil when you tell the guest to “remind people what this means” please let them finish or just start out by you telling us what it means. It’s hard to watch when you ask them to explain, but then you just end up interrupting and explaining halfway through them talking.

That exact scenario plays out in the movie "GATTACA", where the genetically perfect person is played by Jude Law. His perfection does not make him a perfect person, and although he does become a decent human by the end of the movie, he still has a very flawed personality and he cannot cope with what he sees as the failure to live up to his potential.
