Not sure what to think of this, yeah they might "succeed" at making humans immune to cancer, but what other genetic disorder could it cause because of this manipulation?

Embryo screening isn't going to create any new disorders. The child may inherent a problem which wasn't screened for, but the same would happen in a normal pregnancy.

It seems pretty safe and ethical. Pro-lifers would disagree, though.
