Yes, but this should be heavily regulated as genetic engineering could prove to be harmful if there is no guidance or regulation.

 @9ZCTZV6answered…1mo1MO

Yes, but only in cases where the human is not being genetically altered and instead other organisms are in order to create medicines etc, eg. Insulin. It should also be highly regulated.

Not if there is an alternative such as healthier eating and exercise, money should be put into that instead
