Introduction to How Designer Children Work
... When doctors first performed in vitro fertilization (IVF) in 1978, it gave many otherwise infertile couples a way to have a child of their own. IVF works by removing the eggs from the woman's uterus, fertilizing them in a laboratory and then, a few days later, transferring the fertilized egg, called ...

Conditions such as these tend to run in families, but are strongly influenced by environment ( diet, lifestyle, and behavior) - and luck (good or bad). ...
