Yep, and right now, the  easily solved conditions are going to be solved by gene therapy.

Sure, then I'd recommend intentionally funding that research, if you believe it. Figure out where it's going to happen first, and then put money where it will hire graduate students.

as far as i've heard, right now that's only true in very limited fashion. it's not clear to what extent genetic manipulation can go too. maybe we all lose tons of iq points because the next generation has been engineered smarter in a literal sense lol. i suspect that kind of thing will be more controversial than "prevent horrible genetic conditions" too.
