Nucleus Genomics, the company behind this technology, offers a detailed report analyzing over 900 conditions, including diabetes, cancer, mental health, and more. Parents can sort and choose embryos based on their desired attributes, including eye color and cognitive potential. While the technology promises a healthier future for children, it raises ethical concerns about genetic selection and the potential for eugenics. The practice is largely unregulated in the U.S., with many questioning its long-term impact.
