Abstract
Advances in biotechnologies present ordinary families living with genetic disease, disability or difference with some of the most challenging decisions gripping society today. Through assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) and pre-implantation tissue typing (PTT) we are altering the make-up of society at a molecular level. This transdisciplinary practice-based research project looks at advances in genetics and biotechnologies through photographic portraiture. The work aims to explore the fault lines where medicine, technology and society meet.
