Paper 3 Topic

For the third paper I would really like to work on the waiting list for organ transplants via genetic engineering. This would then stem to cloning for the purpose of harvesting organs for the betterment of health. I find this area of science to be extremely fascinating and would love to see it expand in the future. My solution is simply cloning humans so that if one or another person needs a liver or heart there will not be long waiting list for potential donors. The audience for this project would seem to be anyone who would be or is looking into cloning for actual medical purposes not just for the fun of it. My grandmother who is on awaiting list for a liver transplant will most likely not get and will pass away in the near future. This got me to thinking if there were clones of people who were kept in some sort of cryosleep where they would feel no pain and not know that they were alive it would be fine for one of them to be used to harvest organs. Because in the current system we have if one is not rich or famous a lot of them will be not have the transplants need to save their lives. That is base for my reasoning to do the third paper on genetic engineering. I feel that this is not often viewed as potential to save many lives for the sole basis that some people are afraid of the outcome of cloning humans for organs but if given time I think that it could save several people from the heartbreak of losing a loved one from some like a faulty liver.

Have a good day or night (really whenever you are reading this),
