Several potential issues are standing out for me. For one, I am, in a way, describing the future in the making. This could of course lead me to promoting one potential future over the other (either explicitly or implicitly). I could potentially, since the primary component of the study is in the lab, pay more attention to the scientist’s views of the future over other groups (but that is somewhat the point of the study). Second, how do I treat the “samples” of the study (the embryos, etc.). I do not know how I will feel about everything once there…I know plenty of people have very strong feelings for and against the use of particular organisms/tools. Finally, the text I am producing would hopefully serve as a means to examine the ethical milieu as it is taking shape…therefore how I describe it/represent it is quite important for the means with which that milieu will eventually take shape.
