There's some promising genome / genetics going on. Believe it or not, Elephants rarely if ever get cancer due to a duplicate genome that suppresses its starting mechanism. The trade off is a longer gestation and lower birth rate.

Here's a question: If we could cure or severely suppress cancer through genome manipulation, would "designer babies" become more morally ethical or acceptable?
