Changing the Human Genome from the Perspective of Fundamental Moral Principles

Human genome project in its general sense is a genetic project that with the genetic engineering of a human provides the possibility of any change in the human race, including genetic repair or improvement and even the production of a new human without the need for a father sperm. he does. Since the date of the beginning of genetic studies is not long, the issue of simulation is in the realm of emerging affairs. Ethical considerations actually address the moral barriers that may arise from the human genome. Therefore, the present study seeks to address these ethical points.

Descriptive-analytical method has been used to investigate the present issue, which is considered as a qualitative method. The present method examines the issue of human genome change by collecting information from texts and documentary sources in the field of ethics and medicine.

Human simulation needs to consider many ethical considerations from various aspects, including: lack of technical and medical security; Weakening of the family institution and violation of the principle of human dignity and damage to human lineage; Lack of personal identity and full psychological development; Creating a racist approach and creating a superior race; It includes the violation of human creation and the manipulation of God's work.

The rules and regulations related to simulation in Iranian law are ambiguous and have various dimensions that cannot provide strong legal support to support simulation. The only cases that can be seen are the rules related to inheritance of transportation, wills for transportation and acknowledgment in favor of transportation, from which results are extracted in the field of simulation. Therefore, from a legal point of view, we need clear rules about the personality and identity of the fetus and the simulation process. Establishing rules to clarify the mechanisms for using simulation technology is essential.
