Negative Although genetic engineering may seem like the key to a healthy‚ disease free population not enough is known about genetic engineering‚ and human genes to make it safe. The human genome is very complicated‚ often times one sequence of genes has control over multiple different physical attributes of a person‚ this means that by altering one gene sequence scientists could very easily accidentally alter multiple different attributes of humans. Also scientists have discovered that even when
