Scientist are on the breakthrough of possibly finding a way by playing with dnas which could means later, parents who uses in vitro, will be able to know which child may have an incurable disease

It doesn't stop there, they could be able to tell with your dna whether your mate is compatible with your or not.

[quoteccording to a leading scientist, the falling cost of DNA testing means Britain is on the verge of a new era of eugenics.
Professor Armand Leroi, of Imperial College London, said that within five to ten years it will be common for young people to pay for a read-out of their entire genetic code.
The desire to have a healthy baby will then lead them to requesting to see the genetic blueprint of any prospective long-term partner.

Armed with the information, the couple could then use IVF to weed out babies with incurable diseases, a major science conference in Dublin heard.

He added that it is unlikely that people will have the ‘luxury’ of using the technology to design babies by intellect or eye colour and instead the focus will be on stopping genetic diseases.
Professor Leroi told the Euroscience Open Forum 2012 that in some ways eugenics are already here, with tens of thousands of unborn babies with Down’s syndrome and other illnesses being aborted every year.

He said: ‘These processes are very well established in most European countries.
