The Dream of the Perfect Child, Human rights and Biopolitics Shushan Harutyunyan
The document summarizes Joan Rothschild's book "The Dream of the Perfect Child" which traces the historical intersection of science, technology, medicine and the ideology of human perfectibility from the Enlightenment to today. It discusses how eugenics movements of the past have been incorporated into modern reproductive medicine through genetics and the quest for the "perfect child". While clinical practice focuses on individual medical decisions, the book argues that societal eugenic concerns still influence genetic counseling and reproductive medicine.
This document discusses invitro fertilization (IVF) and pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). It provides details on the IVF process and explains that PGD involves testing embryos for genetic diseases prior to implantation. PGD can detect over 100 diseases, reduces miscarriage rates, and allows parents to choose healthy embryos. However, it also enables the selection of "desirable" traits and rejection of embryos deemed "undesirable." This raises ethical concerns about eugenics, discrimination, and defining when life begins. The document examines views on these issues from various ethical frameworks and religions.

This document discusses invitro fertilization (IVF) and pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). PGD involves testing embryos for genetic diseases prior to implantation. It can reduce miscarriage rates and allow parents to select embryos without diseases. However, it also enables selection for traits like gender, raising ethical issues. Views on the morality of embryo research and genetic selection vary between utilitarian, rights-based ethics and different religious perspectives. International policies on PGD also differ in their level of restrictions or bans. The document examines both benefits and concerns around new technologies related to human reproduction and genetics.

Dr. Greta Sykes gives a lecture on what educational psychologists can learn from discussions of evolution among biologists. She summarizes that Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection was initially controversial but is now widely accepted. Recent research shows genes have less influence on traits than originally believed and that group selection and niche construction have played larger roles in evolution than previously acknowledged. This implies an environmentally-focused, preventative approach is important for educational psychologists rather than assuming traits are predetermined by genes.
Designer babies may impact society's work and leisure in the future. Genetic engineering allows selecting traits for babies, eliminating diseases. This pre-implantation genetic diagnosis evaluates embryos for conditions like cancer before implantation. It could enable choosing gender, traits and intelligence levels. While reducing disease risks, it may cause discrimination if used to select abilities. The quality of parent-child relationships could decline if children's qualities affect becoming parents' decisions. Further research is needed to understand implications for morality and society.
In summary, first, it is evident that human reproductive capacities are experiencing displacements, delegations and transformations because of artificial reproductive technologies. Second, progress in the field of artificial reproductive technologies has been and remains rapid and diverse but infertility still is the issue in scientific research, despite the trend to displace the cave-dweller natural option for artificial reproduction and extend it to fertile single people. Third, the social impact of ART on reproduction, families and couples has to be fully grasped in contrast with the dominant order of biparental and heterosexual family to find a way to redefine the concept

Running Head: RESEARCH QUESTION AND HYPOTHESIS 1
Title: Research Question and Hypothesis
Student’s Name:
Date:
Scholars and researchers spend a lot of time doing studies on a particular topic. This gives them an experience on the topic of research that they are dealing with. In my annotated bibliography I have provided several sources that provide a lot of reliable information about aviation safety. All the sources were written by professional authors who provide intensive research techniques about air safety and the benefits of a safe aviation sector (Salkind, 2012). Aviation safety topic is what I am currently dealing with and which I am basing my research on. This topic is has been discussed over and over and it seems that no enough research has been done to answer questions related to the required standards of safety in the sector.
The problem to be addressed in this study is the improvement of aviation safety in the country. The aviation sector is one of the biggest industries in the country and even in the world all over. Safety in the sector is, therefore, a very big issue that needs to be reviewed and stressed. In my research, I will base my research on the improvement of the services in the aviation industry to improve safety and reliability in the sector.
I have developed three questions which if answered will accomplish the goals of my research problem. One of the questions is, what is the impact of an insecure aviation sector to the people and economy of the county. This is because if the sector is not secure, people might get hurt and the economy of the country will be affected as people and customers might develop a negative attitude towards an insecure aviation sector. The second question which will aid in my research if answered is, what are the key factors which promote and allow risks to occur in the aviation sector. Having many risks occurring will promote insecurity in the sector. The third question is about the change of eh policies in the aviation sector. A change of policy might assist to improve aviation safety in the country.
In my proposed study, I will look at the importance of privatizing the aviation sector as being a good strategy of improving services than having it being run by the government (Wiggins & Stevens, 2016). Privatizing the sector will ensure that safety measures have been considered in the sector. A board of directors would run the sector more effectively than the government running. A lot of researches and strategies will be put in place to promote the safety of the sector and ensure the usage of quality equipment to ensure the safety of the employees and the clients of the sector.

Rethinking the biological clock: Eleventh-hour moms, miracle
moms and meanings of age-related infertility

Abstract
Over the past generation, aging and female reproduction have been lodged within the gendered and gendering debates
regarding women’s involvement in the workforce and demographic shifts toward delayed parenting that culminate in
discourses on the ‘‘biological clock’’. Technological solutions to the biological clock, specifically in vitro fertilization, have
led to clinical attempts to assess ‘‘ovarian reserve’’, or qualitative and quantitative changes in the ovary that correlate with
aging and with successful infertility treatment. Rupturing the longstanding historical connections between menstruation
and female reproductive capacity by specifically focusing on the aging of a woman’s eggs, the clinical designation of
‘‘diminished ovarian reserve’’ has come to imply that a woman has ‘‘old eggs’’. This is associated in practitioners’ and
patients’ minds with the eclipse of a woman’s reproductive potential and with hidden harbingers of menopause.
In an ethnographic interview study of 79 couples in the US who conceived after using donor oocytes, we found that
women voiced two different narratives that described their experience and attitudes when confronted with an apparent age-
related decline in their fertility. The ‘‘eleventh-hour mom’’ narrative was voiced by women who initially tried to become
pregnant with their own eggs and turned to donated oocytes as a second-choice option, whereas the ‘‘miracle mom’’
narrative was expressed by women who were generally older, some of whom had entered infertility treatment hoping to
conceive with their own eggs, but some who knew from the outset that it was not going to be possible. Through their
narratives women not only embodied and made meaningful ‘‘diminished ovarian reserve’’ in varying ways that connect
with cultural, social, structural/organizational, symbolic and physical aspects of aging, they reproduced the socio-
biological project of the biological clock, but rooted this social project in the metaphor of ‘‘old eggs’’ rather than
menopause.

1) In April 2015, scientists in China used the gene-editing tool CRISPR to alter genes in human embryos, igniting debate about the ethics of human genome editing.
2) While genome modification has occurred since the 1970s, CRISPR allows for simpler, faster, and cheaper genetic research and editing. However, editing human eggs, sperm, or embryos raises ethical issues about changing human heredity and traits for future generations.
3) In December 2015, an international summit of scientists and bioethicists outlined principles for further research, including not implanting gene-edited embryos and requiring addressing safety, efficacy, and broad societal consensus before any clinical use of germline editing.
The document provides an analysis of the film "Iceman Reborn" which reveals the relevance of the concept of holism to the story of Otzi. Holism means that parts of a whole are interconnected and cannot be fully understood separately. The story of Otzi includes research from various sources like scientists, radiologists, and archaeologists. Without the collaboration of these sources, their research would not be as advanced.

The article discusses the ethics of disability, dependency, and practices like eugenics and selective reproduction from multiple perspectives. It references views that see disability as a burden and analyze defenses of eugenics. The author argues these views are problematic as they essentialize health and see disability as uniquely difficult. While individuals may feel this way, expressing such views can be unethical by reinforcing harmful norms. The author draws on works by Dembroff and Kittay to argue we should have normative commitments to all people, not just those deemed healthy or independent. Overall, the article makes the case that disability and dependency are morally important aspects of human diversity that society should support rather than try to eliminate.

Dati da una ricerca canadese (1997)
“Motherhood at adolescence reduces the chances of pursuing one’s studies and getting a job and increases the risk of
becoming a single parent and living in poverty. There is an increase in abortions and repeated abortions among young

La visione professionale (VP) è condivisa da una
comunità di pratica(*) e dà luogo ad una mutua
costituzione di attori, cose e comunità.
Infatti l'abilità professionale non è individuale, ma
collettiva...
La VP consiste in tre fasi:
• Codifica
• Messa in evidenza
• Produzione di una rappresentazione materiale ed articolata
(*) vedi 5a lezione
5. Produrre rappresentazioni materiali ed articolate
“Resoconti visuali prodotti da tomografia computerizzata, ultrasuoni,
scansioni PET ed immagini prodotte da risonanza magnetica non sono
istantanee fotografiche della realtà, ma rappresentazioni di strutture e
funzioni metaboliche elaborate matematicamente”. (Hogle, 2008, p.847)

6. Le immagini ad ultrasuoni sono entrate
nell'esperienza e nella trajectory della gravidanza
“Queste immagini sono usate anche in pubblicità e nelle campagne anti
aborto […] sono decontestualizzate, inquadrando l'autonomia del feto
e quindi la sua personalità e creando l'immagine del feto come
paziente e quindi della madre come grembo e incubatrice” (Burri & Dumit, 2008,
p.307)

7. “Gli apparati non sono preesistenti o entità fisse; sono essi
stessi costituiti attraverso particolari pratiche che sono
perpetuamente aperte a ri-arrangiamenti, ri-articulazioni, ad
altre ri-elaborazioni. Questo è parte della creatività e
difficoltà del fare scienza: avere la strumentazione che
funzioni in un particolare modo per un particolare intento”.

8. Il trasduttore piezo elettrico
“...nell'ultrasonografia ostetrica, il trasduttore piezo
elettrico è un dispositivo prostetico per creare e
ricreare i margini (inclusi quelli tra natura e cultura,
umano e non umano, vivo e non vivo, visibile ed
invisibile, autonomo ed indipendente, sé ed
altro,...).” (Barad, 2007, p.201).

California, Santa Cruz.
“I trasduttori piezo elettrici si materializzano (e sono
iterativamente ri-materializzati) in intra-azioni con una
moltitudine di pratiche, incluse quelle che includono
necessità mediche; restrizioni progettuali (incluse
quelle legali, economiche, biomediche, fisiche e di
ingegneria); fattori di mercato; temi politici; altri
progetti di R & D che usano simili materiali; il
background specialistico dell'ingegnere e dello
scienziato che hanno progettato il cristallo e l'ambiente
di lavoro della ditta o del laboratorio; gli ambienti
specifici dell'ospedale o della clinica dove la
tecnologia è utilizzata; la recettività della tecnologia
da parte della comunità medica e del paziente;
costrizioni legali, economiche, culturali, religiose,
politiche e spaziali sui suoi usi....”
(Barad, 2007, pp.203-204)
10. Ultrasonografia 3D
“Le immagini sono così naturali che portano l'osservatore a pensare che la
rappresentazione dell'oggetto è isomorfica con l'oggetto stesso; l'immagine
sembra essere proprio quello che vedremmo con i nostri occhi, ma anche meglio”.
(Barad, 2007, p.220)
11. Il “bimbo perfetto”: il problema etico
relativo alla diagnosi (pre) fetale
“Despite all of medicine's advances--in genetic testing, prenatal diagnosis,
and treatment--little headway has been made, from a statistical point
of view, in preventing the majority of birth defects, notes Dr. Stephen
Brown, co-director of the division of clinical genetics, assistant
professor of obstetrics and gynecology, and director of the DNA
diagnostic laboratory. "For a given individual, these advances can
make all the difference in the world, but from a population or
epidemiological point of view, we have not made major advances
against preventing the majority of birth defects." Instead, he says, what
has changed is American attitudes toward birth.[...]
"The advances in technology have been the source of a lot of enthusiasm,
but what has really changed in the last 20 years is attitudes toward
pregnancy," he says. "The average prospective parents in 1997 think
it's their right to have a perfect baby and that [physicians] can tell if
they're going to have a perfect baby. But by and large, we cannot."
One of the most difficult genetic counseling issues medical
professionals face, he says, is getting people to understand that having
a baby always entails the risk of birth defects and mental retardation”.

13. Etica della chirurgia fetale
http://review.ucsc.edu/winter.99/miracle_or_menace.html
"Fetal surgery has been seen largely as a pediatric issue,
not a matter of women's health".
“We love medical miracles in this culture--especially at
both ends of life".
"We're able to construct these tools that allow us to do
amazing things, and medicine has done a very good
job of promoting the idea that we can save lives this
way. But with each of these 'medical miracles,' there
is a downside."
Fetal surgeons view the fetus as the patient, but does
that mean the fetus is a person, asks Casper. What
about the woman's role as patient? Could mothers be
forced to undergo the procedure against their will?
Like interventions at the end of life, does it make
sense to try to save the life of an impaired fetus at all
costs, financial and otherwise? What if the best
surgical outcome is a severely disabled infant?
14. Le politiche della normalizzazione del genere alla nascita
Genital Fixations
by Monica J. Casper and Courtney Muse on March 16, 2006
http://nsrc.sfsu.edu/article/genital_fixations_intersex
“The term "intersex" refers to conditions in which an individual’s anatomy—specifically
genitalia but also other characteristics such as chromosomes and internal
sexual/reproductive anatomy—is defined as “ambiguous” or atypical for that person’s sex,
or in which there is a specific type of endocrinological deficiency or imbalance. Anatomical
dissimilarity may appear at birth (and may even be diagnosed before birth), but also can
sometimes appear later in a person’s life, for example at puberty. There is considerable
variation among definitions of intersex used by doctors, scientists, and laypersons. The
intersex patient rights movement and feminist scholars have advanced the idea that intersex,
like other concepts related to sex and gender, is constructed and contested. That is, while
intersex conditions may be based in “nature” through the actions of genes and hormones,
our understanding of the significance of these conditions is social, cultural, and political”.
[…]
“We suggest that not treating fetuses with atypical genitalia is a viable clinical option, and,
moreover, that it is a deeply moral approach to the enduring “problem” of anatomical
differences”.
15. My Life as an Intersexual
by Max Beck
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/gender/beck.html
When I was born, the doctors couldn't tell my parents what I was: They
couldn't tell if I was a boy or a girl.
[…]
"Feed the baby every two hours, burp well after feeding, and raise it
female."
[…]
What was I? The doctors and surgeons assured me I was a girl, that I
just wasn't yet "finished." I don't think they gave a thought to what
that statement would mean to me and my developing gender
identity, my developing sense of self. The doctors who told me I was
an "unfinished girl" were so focused on the lie—so invested in selling
me "girl"—that I doubt they ever considered the effect a word like
"unfinished" would have on me.
