GENETIC ENGINEERING

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

A series of eight talks on how the most fundamental of the biological sciences is being used in a new technology 3: Reproduction: chance and choice by Dr. R. G. EDWARDS
University of Cambridge
Why do some couples fail to have children, and why are some child-ten born with serious genetic defects? The answer to these Questions are being sought by investigation of the behaviour of eggs and sperm. It will probably be this kind of investigation that one day leads to our having a choice of the sort of children born rather than leaving the whole of reproduction to chance.
