They Grew Up Believing They Were Half Brothers From The Same Sperm Donor. A DNA Test Revealed The Truth. – BuzzFeed News

Since he was born, Tylen has known he had a half brother on the other side of the country. In 2008, Tylens mother, Christy Coyle, had used the same sperm donor as the other mom, Lauran, and they found one another online. The kids were born weeks apart, met as infants, and played together. Their single mothers spoke weekly on the phone and raised them as half siblings so they would always have someone just like them whom they could turn to. For years, a large canvas photo print of Coyle holding the two boys hung on a wall in Laurans house.

We had planned that when they turned 18 and got to meet the donor that they were going to do it together, Coyle said. It was just our life plan.

With their children approaching 10, the two women paid for an AncestryDNA test to provide the boys with a piece of paper confirming their ties and breaking down their genetic history. One evening, while on the phone with Coyle, Lauran looked up the results.

And then it was just dead silence, Coyle said. There was no noise at all. And she just said, Theyre not related.

Coyle, now 41, was given the wrong sperm sample. The discovery sent her into a spiral. She felt violated, having been inseminated by a strange man whom she did not choose. She felt foolish, having searched in vain for physical similarities between the two boys. But she also felt that she had failed as a mother, as if she had betrayed her son and robbed him of the life plan she had envisioned.

It was a couple of months of just sitting there, being devastated for my son, she told BuzzFeed News. Lots of no sleeping or crying because you dont know what to tell your son. You feel like youve been lying to them about where they came from.

It would take months and a DNA test from an unsuspecting middle-aged woman living far away in Texas before the mystery would be solved.

Tylen, right, with Lauran's son as toddlers.

In the multibillion-dollar sperm bank industry, stories of mix-ups have become increasingly common. While federal regulators require that samples be tested for communicable diseases such as HIV, there is little to no national regulation beyond that: No laws punishing sloppy record-keeping at the clinics, no laws mandating that the personal information provided by donors is verified, no laws ensuring that women are being inseminated with the exact samples they have selected. And theres currently no major lobbying effort to change any of that.

Wendy Kramer cofounder of the Donor Sibling Registry, a website that connects children who were conceived using sperm donors said most people dont know how little the industry is regulated. I think for so many of us when we had to use a donor in order to have a child we all thought, Oh, its the medical industry. These are medical professionals, so theres going to be the same ethics and morals and responsibilities and record-keeping, she said. What many of us have come to realize over the years is this isnt the medical profession. These are sperm-sellers, and thats very different, and their ethics and responsibilities are very different.

The increasing ubiquity and availability of at-home DNA testing kits, genealogy websites, and social media has been a slow-building storm for the donor industry, gradually exposing more and more cases of samples or records being mishandled. Just as police departments are cracking decades-old cold cases using genetic testing, donor-conceived children are learning shocking information about themselves and their families.

The mistakes from clinics span the country and stretch back decades, taking a profound human toll not only on children such as Tylen but also on donor-conceived adults, shattering their understanding of themselves and their families as well as the bonds they have painstakingly built.

We obviously didnt grow up with one another, and we obviously didnt live close to one another, so that already makes it difficult to maintain a relationship, said Sam Johnson, a 29-year-old New Yorker who unearthed shocking information about his donor and his supposed half siblings after taking a DNA test. But then when you add the fact that were not even related, its like, whats really holding it together?

These stories from Coyle and Johnson touch on fundamentally human questions: What is family? And what is its purpose?

For most people, of course, family goes beyond simple blood bonds but involves social connections built over years of shared experiences. Its also a central means by which we get to know ourselves and build our identity.

For donor-conceived children, discovering new relatives with similar lived experiences can mean theyre extending their family in both the genealogical and social sense. The half sibling could fill in gaps in their biological identity and build a relationship that fills in part of their social identity and self-awareness.

Its hard enough for these donor-conceived people to kind of jockey around the whole idea of identity: Who am I when I dont know where half of me comes from? Kramer said. Connecting with others who also share that unknown half of yourself can be very important, can be profound and life-changing. Relationships are made, bonds are made, and friendships are made. Their family has expanded.

Then to have the rug pulled out under you, to say those people are not actually your biological relative, is extremely upsetting.

Johnson knew at an early age that his family was different. Born to two moms in the early 1990s, he grew up an only child in northern Manhattan. Liberal New York was something of a bubble, but kids were still kids. I definitely got shit ... Every time somebody would say, Oh, thats gay, I would fucking correct that, he said. People would definitely make fun of the way that I was born, the fact that I was conceived through artificial insemination.

He loved his moms, but there was an occasional nagging feeling a sense of mourning, as he described it, for not knowing exactly where he had come from. The only clue Johnson had was the donor information card from the New York clinic, Repro Lab, that his birth mother, Nicole Johnson, had used to conceive him. According to the donor sheet, Donor #19 was Italian, Catholic, and worked as a doctor. He had green eyes and dark brown hair. He was married and enjoyed soccer and antiques. He didnt smoke or drink, and he had a spotless medical history. Describes himself as, read the sheet, optimistic, exciting, and honest.

As he grew older, Johnson internalized what little information the paper provided him. He tried picking up some Italian using Duolingo and even had a friend teach him some recipes, soon perfecting the simple Neapolitan dish spaghetti aglio e olio. Occasionally, hed search online for doctors photos, wondering if he looked like any of the men in the results. In 2007, his googling led him to Kramers website, the Donor Sibling Registry.

Within a year, he had connected with a woman who had the same Donor #19 card from Repro Lab. And then another. And another. And another still. He was overwhelmed.

One of the women, Genna Ellis, was the same age as Johnson; she had grown up in Brooklyn, also with two moms. When she and Johnson met at Manhattans Union Square, what could have been an awkward encounter quickly eased into an hours-long walk as they discussed their similar childhoods. It was a powerful experience for both of us, considering that was the first time we thought we were communicating with someone we were blood-related to, Ellis said.

For the next decade, Johnson reveled in these newfound connections: A social worker by trade, he helped Ellis with an addiction problem. He visited one half sister in California when he helped a friend move across the country. He helped a third through a bad breakup and let her sleep on his couch. He was there when she got her first tattoo. She even came to his wedding.

I was always proud to be like, yeah, this is my sister to be able to say that, he said. I liked the idea of it.

The first crack came when one of the supposed half sisters took a 23andMe test and learned she had Baltic, not Italian, heritage. She later matched with a Slovakian man who confirmed he had been a donor at the New York clinic in his youth.

Johnson took a 23andMe test. Ellis took one too. None of them were related to each other. Their donors were all different.

It definitely hurt to find out that these relationships not to minimize their significance but to find out that the foundations that they were built upon were false, he said. Over the course of 10 years, I spent time forming relationships with these people. Not that they werent still meaningful, but its like the foundation is, like, what the fuck?

William Henry Pancoast (1835 - 1897). American physician and surgeon.

Secrecy and fraud have been present since the very first recorded case of successful artificial insemination in the US when in 1884, a 41-year-old wealthy Philadelphia business merchant and his 31-year-old wife came to see one of the citys most prominent physicians, William Pancoast. The doctor and his medical students inspected both and ultimately concluded the mans semen contained no sperm. After months of treatment failed, Pancoast came up with a plan B when one of his students joked that the only solution to this problem is to call in the hired man.

Pancoast invited the woman to his clinic and knocked her unconscious with chloroform. Then, without her consent and with his students present, the doctor used a hard rubber syringe to inject some fresh semen from the best-looking member of the class into her uterus before plugging her cervix with gauze. The students and Pancoast made a pledge of absolute secrecy.

She became pregnant, and Pancoast eventually felt guilty enough to tell her husband. He turned out to be delighted with the idea but asked that his wife not be informed. She later gave birth to a son. The insemination was only revealed 25 years later when one of the students, Addison Davis Hard, published a piece in a medical journal recounting the procedure. By all accounts, the woman was never told.

In the 1950s, scientific breakthroughs came with the freezing of sperm and the early pioneers immediately envisaged grand commercial potential. One of the first researchers in the field, Raymond Bunge, predicted in a letter to his mother, It wont be long before my icicles will be in the deep freeze section of supermarkets. But the research remained controversial; a 1954 headline about three babies born through Bunges method of freezing and insemination declared, Fatherhood After Death Has Now Been Proved Possible. Fear of so-called test tube babies abounded.

The first sperm banks didnt arrive until the 1970s, mainly as a place for men to deposit and store their own samples for later use, say, if they were going through cancer treatment. Fertility doctors were still mostly using fresh sperm samples not frozen ones to inseminate women. When the AIDS crisis began and several women contracted HIV from fresh donations, medical preference shifted for the first time to using frozen samples for the procedure. The only real regulation implemented involved screening the samples for STDs. But the list of diseases that are tested are relatively short, said Naomi R. Cahn, law professor at George Washington University and author of Test Tube Families: Why the Fertility Market Needs Legal Regulation. And for all we know the same donor that could be rejected at one bank is going to another bank and trying again until that donor succeeds.

There are no records of how many sperm donations are made every year in the US, nor of how many children are conceived, but it is frequently said to be between 30,000 to 60,000 births per year. Kramer with the DSR argues that number is woefully out of date.

Still, the scandals tend to find the media spotlight. There was the man whose samples were used to produce more than 150 children, the many parents who end up unintentionally having children of different races (in one instance because a clinic was said to have confused Donor 380 with Donor 330), the woman whose dead husbands samples were misplaced and allegedly used to impregnate other women, or the Georgia clinic that allegedly marketed a donor to hopeful parents as a neuroscience genius studying a PhD in engineering but who was in reality an ex-con who had never attended college and had a history of psychiatric hospitalization. His sample has been used to conceive at least 36 children.

Many of these mistakes would not have come to light had it not been for the arrival of the DNA genealogy market an industry estimated to be valued at over $3 billion in the US alone. Even if donors had requested decades ago to remain private, genealogy websites and social media have made that largely impossible. A 2018 survey of almost 500 donor-conceived people conducted by Kramers website found that almost a quarter of them had used DNA testing to track down their donor.

As more donor-conceived children find their biological parents and half siblings, new and extended family units are forming. One 2016 study of 419 donor-conceived children found more than a third of them get together once a year with the half siblings theyve discovered, and a fifth of them meet up together several times a year. Some 42% of them said they considered their half sibling to be part of their immediate nuclear family.

Tylen had been Christy Coyles miracle. In 2008, she was single and working in the records department of a police department in Chicago's suburbs when she was told she needed surgery to treat cervical cancer. If she wanted to ever have children like she had always dreamed, her doctor said, she needed to move quickly. She got to work.

Within three days, she had selected a sperm bank that would mail her a sample, NW Cryobank in Washington state, and begun printing out information sheets about possible donors, organizing them on the floor in stacks. She made lists of her preferred qualities blue eyes, blonde or brown hair, athletic, good eyesight, and above all healthy and circled donors who met her criteria.

Some nine months later, she was holding her son after he was delivered via C-section. He was just beautiful, she recalled through tears. It was like every dream that I had was in my hands, and I didnt think that was going to happen.

Using a forum on the sperm banks website, Coyle connected with Lauran, who was in South Carolina and had selected the same donor (Lauran asked that she be identified only by her first name and that her son not be named to protect their privacy). She, too, was a single woman now expecting a boy. I always thought that I would have a child in a marriage where I have somebody to share it with, said Coyle. And it was like she was somebody who, even though were just friends, she was able to understand what I was going through at the exact same time, and that was huge. It got me through a lot.

The connection deepened once the boys were born. Once they were here, we could see what they looked like and how big they were, said Lauran, now 44. We were constantly comparing: What size clothes is he in? Is he crawling yet? We went back and forth like that for years.

When the boys were almost 2, the families met. The two women booked adjoining hotel rooms in Atlanta and watched as the kids played together in parks and water fountains and fed each other fruit. Soon enough, the door between the two rooms remained open and the boys ran back and forth freely.

Despite living far apart, the families remained exceptionally close. Lauran and Coyle even decided to use another matching donor for their second children to further connect their families.

But when Lauran logged on to AncestryDNA during the phone call with Coyle one evening in 2018, they finally discovered the truth. A subsequent DNA test performed by California Cryobank which purchased NW Cryobanks assets in 2016 from another company, Cryo confirmed that only Lauran had been impregnated with the sample both women had requested. Coyle felt like all the planning shed done years ago, all her best intentions, had been for naught.

I thought I was doing what was best. I picked somebody who he would get to know when he turned 18. I had a piece of paper telling me what he looked like. I had all the information, and suddenly you find out none of that was true. You dont even know who you got, she said. Its a really hard thing to process. And you have to go back and really reevaluate if you made the right decision. I question myself a lot. It made me feel horrible.

There was grief, too. The vision the women had for their sons futures a half brother to call their own, a donor whom the boys could meet together when they turned 18 had disappeared. We thought, Well, if something were to happen, if the donor decided he didnt want contact, or he turned out to be a jerk, [my son] and Ty would have each other. No matter what, theyd have each other, said Lauran. And it just completely took that away from us.

Sitting on their couch in 2011 in California, Bryce Branzell and his new fianc, Ariel, were watching a TV show when one of the characters went to a sperm bank. The show brought up an old memory for Branzell, then 23, about the time hed almost donated to a clinic. When he told Ariel, they laughed about it. I was like, good thing you didnt! she told BuzzFeed News. We joked about it like, good thing you didnt and you dont have 10 kids out there!

In 2008, Branzell had returned from basic training with the Army Reserves in Montana. Money was tight. As he scanned the classifieds for jobs he saw an ad promising $500 for every sperm donation. It was easy money. He filled out an application detailing information about his physical condition, health, and education. Within a few weeks, he was called in to provide a sample so the clinic could test his fertility and determine if he could donate.

Thats when he started having doubts. He liked the idea of getting his fertility tested, but he still wasnt sure if he was comfortable with donating for real. When he turned up at the clinic for the awkward experience of masturbating into a cup, the nagging doubts were suddenly alarm bells.

At the time, I was thinking prior to this, Yeah, its a good idea. I like the fact that I can help a family have a child, he said. But then I actually got in there, and Im thinking about the long-term things that could potentially come from this and the fact that I want to have my own kids and how awkward it would be to say, Hey, boys, girls, guess what? Youve got an older sibling that you never knew about.

Branzell handed his test sample to the male technician and then apologized. He was backing out. He said he was assured his sample would be disposed of and he had nothing to worry about.

A decade passed. Branzell deployed to Afghanistan twice, first with the Army and then the Marines. He met Ariel. They married and moved to Texas, where he became a police officer in Round Rock. Ariel began flipping houses. Together, they had two boys: Conrad, 5, and Asher, 2.

Bryce Branzell and his wife, Ariel.

Then in January 2019, Branzell received a text message from his mother. She had been building a family tree and was given an AncestryDNA kit for her birthday. Now, a woman in Illinois had sent a message seeking medical information about her own son, who was conceived using a donor linked to Branzells mom. Had he ever made a donation before?

It was one of those moments where Im like, there has to be some sort of mistake here. Theres no way something could have happened, said Branzell. And then all of a sudden the thought popped in my mind that this did happen; I did provide a test sample to the company. Could that have been it?

Branzell began pacing the room as Ariel went to the womans Facebook account and began scrolling. She saw pictures of the womans son. She was shocked. He had the same chin and ears as her husband. She found photos of the boy as a baby. He looked just like their own son.

Branzell couldnt help but agree: She pulled up a picture of Tylen, he said, and I thought, Yep, he looks just like me as a kid.

A DNA test would later confirm it: Branzell was Tylen Coyles father.

The first phone call between Branzell and Tylen was full of awkward fits and starts. Hi, Im Bryce, he recalled saying to his son months later. Yeah, Im your dad? I guess? Maybe?

You could tell he was nervous about it. He wasnt as talkative, according to Christy, as he usually is, Branzell said. It was kind of awkward to begin with. Just, how do we handle this relationship now?

For both Branzell and Coyle, there is no guidebook for families suddenly joined together or, in the case of Sam Johnson and Genna Ellis, torn apart as a result of errors in the donor industry. Their relationship their understanding of what their family is is whatever they and their children want it to be.

How Branzells sperm sample ended up being used to conceive Coyles son is now the subject of a federal lawsuit. He is suing California Cryobank and Cryo for negligence, fraud, and infliction of emotional distress, among other things. (Reached for comment, lawyers for California Cryobank referred BuzzFeed News to their motion they filed on May 13 to dismiss the case. Cryo also filed its own motion to dismiss. Both companies argue they did not inherit NW Cryobanks liabilities when they purchased its stock and are not responsible for any wrongdoing.)

The Branzells had decided to contact Coyle the day after they learned of her request. Shed merely been asking for medical information about her sons donor, and they reasoned that if they were in her situation they would want the same. (Branzell has a history of blood clots, and the couple test their boys routinely.)

When the message arrived, Coyle felt like she could breathe again for the first time in months. It was a relief that oh my gosh, I finally know that at least there is a person and hes a real person that gave that donation, she said. I know it sounds dumb, but I was finally able to put a face with my sons other genetic half.

This hunt for medical information is also the driving force for Johnson in wanting answers about his donor. Hes a father himself now; he worries for his son, Phoenix, who was born last year with gastroesophageal reflux disease, despite it not running in Johnsons nor his wifes known family. What else could be lurking? He may have another rare disease that we could get tested, said Johnson, but I have no idea what the fucking medical history is.

Johnson knows that family is about more than DNA. He has good friends he considers to be Phoenixs uncles. And the relationships he built with the women he thought were his sisters still mean something to him; hes just not sure what.

I spent most of my life always wondering what the other side of me was, he said. You sort of start to piece together an identity based on this collective understanding of you guys having the same sort of situation and were like, oh, were related. We can form our own weird sober family thing! And then as soon as you start to do that and its taken away, it makes it feel like not necessarily that your time has been wasted but...yeah, it also does.

It definitely does feel like a loss, he said. It feels weird now if I were to contact them and try to talk to them, theres this voice in my head thats like, why? Not that theyre no longer important to me. I still care about them. Feelings like that dont go away, but I envision this cruel audience in my head being like, Youre being weird reaching out to these people. Theyre not even related to you.

In 2018, after he learned he was not related to his supposed half siblings, he wrote to Repro Lab, but the company said it no longer had the appropriate records on file. We understand how you feel, a company representative wrote back to him in an email provided to BuzzFeed News. There is a lot of confusion from the findings you described and we understand the emotions it has surfaced.

The reply infuriated Johnson. Have you been through this exact same experience? he told BuzzFeed News of their response. Then dont fucking tell me you understand. Im pissed.

Awilda Grillo, director of Repro Lab, told BuzzFeed News she could not say definitively what occurred in Johnsons case as she started working at the clinic after his mother ordered the sample in 1990. I dont know if it was an error in record-keeping, she said. Were talking about 28 or 29 years ago. Donor #19 was, I think, probably one of the first donors of the Repro Lab, and back then things were different.

She also suggested that the physicians who inseminated the different women may have made errors. You cant say because you have a piece of paper that you were inseminated with that donor. The only thing that could confirm that is the record of the procedure, Grillo said. I dont want to point fingers and say theyre guilty [or] were guilty. Who knows? Who knows whos guilty? But Im saying theres so many possibilities.

The New York Times reported last year in a story Grillo said was misleading that the New York State Health Department had found poor record-keeping at the clinic. The investigation was prompted when a woman discovered her 21-year-old daughter had been conceived using a sample from Repro Lab she had not originally selected.

Grillo said Sams story was unfortunate and upsetting, but she had no answers for him. Theres no clarity, she said. Theres a lot of unknowns, unfortunately.

In three states California, Indiana, and Texas so-called fertility fraud laws now make it a crime for a doctor to knowingly inseminate a patient with a donor whom they have not selected and given consent. These laws mainly came in response to doctors who used their own samples to impregnate unknowing women. (One Indiana doctor parented more than 60 biological children through this fraud.) But courts have been loath to find that families have suffered as a result of an accident or negligence as long as the child is healthy. The Utah Supreme Court called this the supposition that the road not taken would have led to a better result and described it a common human fallacy.

This was the judgment Coyle said she feared receiving in sharing her story with BuzzFeed News. It seems like the moms in these kinds of stories usually get responses like, You should be happy that you just have a healthy kid, she said. But they dont understand the emotional strain that it puts on you, and I think that they really need to change regulations and be held responsible for what they did.

Lauran, too, is sympathetic to her friends plight. Ive read stories of other moms. The judge kind of says, Youve got a healthy kid. What do you care? Well, because this is a person, and Ive been telling him one thing for 10 years and now Ive been lying unknowingly, she said. Hes a person. Hes not a product.

Months after the Branzells reached out to Coyle, the couples attorneys arranged for a meeting in Los Angeles. Ariel arrived first and had the awkward experience of meeting a total stranger who had given birth to her husbands child years before she had. Its just the weirdest, she said. Youre instantly connected, but youve never met them. You dont know any of their history, but you have this really strong connection.

It was there that Coyle pulled out her phone to FaceTime her son so he could speak to his father for the first time. She had waited until it was confirmed that Branzell was his donor before telling him about the mix-up. For Coyle, sharing the painful news that Tylen was not related to Laurans son was tempered somewhat by his excitement at knowing at last who his father is. He now peppers his mother with questions about Branzells work as a police officer and time in the military cool to almost any 10-year-old and wants to know if he, too, liked science when he was a kid.

Branzell, though, is taking it slow for now, at least. He and Ariel havent told their sons yet about their new half brother. He also doesnt know how many other children he may have out there, or how many times his supposedly discarded sample may have been used. He wonders what might happen if someone else turns up at his door at age 18 asking to be part of the family.

Still, he envisages a future relationship with Tylen one day. I know that he wants to have a relationship with his father, and it wouldnt be fair for me to say I dont want that, he said. Hes a kid, and I want to give him the things that he wants because he didnt get this choice. None of us did.

In South Carolina, Lauran also had to sit her son down and break the news about Tylen, but she isnt sure he really understands or has emotionally processed what happened. I dont know that he feels the full brunt of it just yet, she said.

But, she told him, Coyle and her boys are still family even if he is no longer related by blood to them. Ten years of bonds dont vanish overnight.

In her home, she still has on the wall the canvas photo print of Coyle and the kids, taken on that Atlanta trip in the hotel pool. Tylen wears a life vest, and Laurans son has floaties on as he reaches up to the camera for his mom. Coyle is beaming as she cradles them both.

Its just a good memory, said Lauran. I still think of it as when my son met his half brother, even though I know biologically its not true. Thats how I still like to think of it.

A day after announcing the world's largest infectious diseases testing lab here to help fight the COVID-19 pandemic and other diseases, the IIT Alumni Council on May 29 said it has partnered with Mumbai University for the mega lab project.

The proposed MegaLab Mumbai, with a capacity to make as much as 1 crore tests a month, will be up and running from July with 1 lakh testing capabilities. It will reach full potential by early October, and will be the world's largest dedicated molecular diagnostic and genetic testing facility. MegaLab Mumbai will work with the National Centre for Nanosciences and Nanotechnology and the Innovation and Incubation Centre of the Mumbai University.

"The IIT Alumni Council is honoured to have the Mumbai University as its partner for enabling a world-class healthcare infrastructure in Mumbai for testing infectious diseases including the new coronavirus which has become a pandemic now.

"Under the partnership, the students, the faculty and the research infrastructure of the university will act as the research backbone of the MegaLab project, which will be based on the end-to-end Kodoy indigenous technology stack and will have adequate capacity for testing the entire population of Mumbai for infectious diseases, each month," said Ravi Sharma, the council president.

Mumbai University Vice-Chancellor Suhas Pednekar said, "Building on our strength in biotechnology and related research areas such as biosciences, we are now chartering a new path by partnering in a path breaking initiative promoted by the IIT Alumni Council to create one of the largest labs ever built for molecular diagnostic and genetic testing in Mumbai."

A global competition is underway to finalise more partners and also to identify the appropriate equipment sources, and consumable manufacturers. To enable the creation of an entire ecosystem to support the path-breaking initiative, MegaLab Mumbai will be partnering with research-oriented institutions of national importance in Mumbai and Delhi, Sharma said. The partnership with Mumbai University will ensure consistency, speed, quality and scale of MegaLab testing, he said.

The council has been on the forefront of catalysing and motivating students, professionals, corporates, startups and academicians to align their energies in the quest to find innovative, low-cost and rapidly scalable solutions for the pandemic.

The council has already developed 100 per cent indigenous kits which are in various stages of manufacturing and approvals so as to meet the entire requirement of developing countries, including India, China, Asean nations, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.

MegaLab Mumbai is the biggest initiative of the council to date and aims to help design and establish the largest genetic testing laboratory for the new coronavirus and other infectious diseases like TB with an end-to-end capacity to carry out over 1 crore tests per month.

Ravindra Kulkarni, the pro-vice-chancellor of Mumbai University, said the varsity has an outstanding track record in the area of biological and medical sciences. "Several doctors who are at the forefront in the fight against new coronavirus have been our alumni and we take pride in their contribution," he said.

Looking for loons: Isolated birds widely recognized as indicator species of healthy aquatic environment – Sports and Weather Right Now

The memorable scenes of loons in the 1981 movie On Golden Pond were my first introduction to common loons, but it would be more than 30 years before I saw one in person.

While kayaking with my husband at a Northeast Washington lake five years ago, we could hear their legendary haunting and eerie call. A large male common loon then swam into view, and my fascination with loons began.

As a nature photographer, I was drawn to these unique, beautiful and interesting birds.

The striking appearance and haunting call of the loon are legendary. Their plumage has intricate patterns of black and white on their bodies; a dark multicolored collar, a head and partially striped neck that are iridescent when washed in sunlight.

And those piercing red eyes.

Loons breed throughout most of Canada and northern United States. They migrate to salt water or large fresh water large lakes and rivers in winter, returning to the same nesting and migration sites each year. Loons are monogamous, but will seek out a new mate if their mate doesnt return in the spring. The lifespan of a healthy loon is up to 30 years.

Both male and female loons build their nest, incubate eggs, and care for young. Their tender devotion to their chicks is one of the most remarkable scenes I have witnessed in the natural world, and a trait that endears them to many. Chicks ride on their parents backs for the first couple of weeks after hatching.

In 2018, I was fortunate to witness this for the first time. The chick climbed onto the parents back using the tail like a ramp or going up under the parents wing. The little chick sat warm and safely protected, peering out from under the shelter of the wing, an image that remains forever etched in my mind.

Ive since viewed and photographed newly hatched chicks on multiple occasions, and the experience always leaves me in awe.

Their diet consists of fish, crayfish and aquatic invertebrates such as dragonfly nymphs. Loons swim along the surface of the lake with their head and necks underwater scanning for fish, shooting like a torpedo underwater after their prey. The parents feed chicks until they migrate in the fall.

While I was once focused on getting the shot, the motivation behind my work has changed over time. I began researching the creatures I was photographing to learn more about them, and in the process have come to really care about what I photograph and the challenges they face. Advocacy and teaching others about the subjects in my images are now an important part of my work.

There is often a story behind the scenes I photograph. Such is the case with loons. It turns out that seeing loons is a special thing indeed. Loons once nested in Washington, California, Idaho and Oregon, but today they are only known to be nesting in Washington. Historically, there were 50 known nesting pairs in Washington state. That number is much smaller now. The majority of nesting loons are in Northeast Washington, with just 16-20 nesting pairs there.

A loon pair has a clutch of one or two eggs per year. Few loon chicks survive to the end of summer to migrate. In 2000, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife listed them as a sensitive and threatened species. Factors affecting their recovery are predation by other animals and birds, habitat loss, lead and mercury poisoning, and human interference.

In 1980, there were just 104 bald eagle breeding pairs in the state, but by 2005 had recovered to 840, continuing to increase since that time to the point that they have been removed from both the federal and state endangered species lists.

As predators, eagles sometimes prey on both loon chicks and adults a factor in building a sustainable loon population. Loons also ingest lead fishing tackle from broken fishing lines, resulting in lead poisoning. Regulations banning lead tackle at lakes where loons nest has helped, but non-nesting lakes that still allow lead tackle continue to affect mortality in transient or migrating loons.

Human interference is complex. Some loons are struck by boats or jet skis. At least nine waterfowl species eat fish in Eastern Washington, but there are a handful of people who object to loons eating fish, shooting them or intentionally destroying their nests.

Well-intentioned nature lovers and photographers also put them at risk by getting too close, driving loons from their nests or disrupting their nesting/chick raising in some way. Loons show distress by moving away from feeding chicks, leaving the nest, theatrical acrobatics in the water or alarm calls.

If your presence changes their behavior in any way, you are too close.

I have been fortunate to meet and learn from Dan and Ginger Poleschook, two volunteer researchers who have dedicated the last 25 years to Washington loon conservation work and advocacy, and have been instrumental in loon recovery.

Last summer, I joined them for loon banding at a remote Ferry County lake. Banding occurs late at night when all traces of light are gone a necessity for successful loon capture.

To an outsider, it probably looked like a clandestine drug operation, but it was actually a team of experts from the Forest Service and Biodiversity Research Institute working together on behalf of the loons.

Loons were captured and brought back to a staging area on shore, where the team drew blood to measure heavy metal levels, collected feathers for genetic testing and measured, weighed and banded the loons. A large male was caught first, and then later the female with a chick.

While the female was processed, Ginger held the tiny days-old chick in her hands. The team repeated this process nearly every night, covering nine lakes in Eastern Washington. They were knowledgeable and efficient, with an infectious camaraderie and passion for loon conservation.

Though we wrapped up around 3 a.m., I was energized by this unforgettable experience. It gave me a greater awareness that there is often much happening behind the scenes to preserve the wildlife many of us treasure.

Because of their longevity and place in the food chain, common loons are widely recognized as an indicator species that reflect the health of the aquatic environment, which in turn impacts human health.

Ameritrade founder Joe Ricketts Conservation Foundation made a substantial donation to support loon conservation and relocation of the common loon to former nesting areas where they have been eliminated. Ricketts believes the loons on our lakes and streams are similar to the canary in a mine.

If were polluting our lakes to the point where were killing the loons, its a wake up call to us as human beings that were causing more damage to our environment than we think we are and we cant see it except through a bird like the loon, Ricketts said.

Loons are dependent on our choices for their continued survival. As Maya Angelou once said, When we know better, we do better. As much as I love photographing loons, their survival is more important than any experience I might have or image that I take.

This has translated to changes in how I observe and photograph loons quietly observing loons from a distance to avoid disturbance, backing away if their behavior changes or they show signs of distress. I come back at another time if I see other people are already observing loons on a lake. The purchase of long lenses and cropping has helped to get close-up shots while maintaining a respectful distance.

I advocate for and educate others about loons when there is an opportunity. Weve replaced fishing gear with nonleaded tackle, and make every attempt to remove lines that have become snagged. These small things make a difference.

The loons are returning to Northeast Washington and nesting season is upon us. Understandably so, many people love loons and their unforgettable haunting call. My hope is that in knowing the loons plight, we all do what we can to protect these magnificent birds, so that we can continue to enjoy them for generations to come.

The loons just might have a bigger role in our lives than we think. A win for the loons is a win for us all.

Consumer healthcare choices and options to be an outcome of COVID-19 pandemic – Reno Gazette Journal

Dr. Bonnie Ferrara talks about how Renown Medical Group is offering virtual doctor visits for certain patients. Reno Gazette Journal

The ball has bounced to the patients court

Thats at least according to Renown CEO and President Anthony Slonim,who said the outcome of the coronavirus pandemic means consumers will have more options and choices.

And those options are coming faster than ever before in a medical world that was sometimes been slow to transform to patient needs.

We have been doing it around the edges, said Slonim about the incremental progress the medical community made on population health and consumer-driven healthcare.

Overnight our world has shifted to make us think more deliberately about how we can go about executing it.

Slonim said the expansion of telemedicine happened literallyovernight in Nevada as patients with other illnesses avoided doctors offices and urgent cares for fear of contracting coronavirus.

We are learning that people want convenience in their living rooms.

He saidtelemedicine is the just one of the ways consumers are demanding options.

He said now when a person is sick they can decide if they need to Skype a doctor.

Do they need to have a nurse practitioner visit them at home or do they need to go to an urgent care or the ER?

Slonim said medicine is changing and giving concierge service to everyone.

Slonim also said the problem in medicine had been there hasnt been a quarterback.

Now some of that ownership is back on primary care physicians.

I am telling doctors, 'Dont wait for them to come to you,' he said. You have to manage it.

He also said health care will need to learn to relinquish some of the control.

We learned that with our Healthy Nevada Project, Slonim said of an initiative pioneered by Renown to genetically test thousands of Nevadans to evaluate the health of the population.

When we made genetic testing free, 50,000 people signed up, he said.

He said the same is true of COVID-19 testing.

Everyone you talk to wants a COVID test, he said. Opening it up to everyone without a doctors prescription puts consumerism more front and center than ever before.

He said it gives families and individuals choices on how to manage their own health.

There are safe and appropriate things you can do without having to go to a doctor, he said. Needing a doctors prescription for tests is old school thinking.

And while the image of coronavirus focused on social distancing and doctors covered head to toe in protective equipment, Slonim said the pandemic has the medical community talking about the human touch.

During a recent medical webinar, Slonim said the conversation was that technology cant be everything.

Remember when it was OK to sit on the bed with a patient and hold their hand, Slonim said a doctor on the call said.They talked about how it became common to view that as invading a patients space.

But Slonim said people still long for that connectivity and caring.

What will evolve is a way to understand how to do that differently with technology enabling it.

As North Dakota wildlife goes, mountain lions top the list of species that captivate and fascinate – Jamestown Sun

Ask anyone in North Dakota wildlife circles, and theyd likely be hard-pressed to name an animal that generates a bigger buzz than a mountain lion that makes its presence known.

It depends on a persons passion but mountain lions do even for the nonhunting public garner a lot of interest from people, said Stephanie Tucker, furbearer biologist for the North Dakota Game and Fish Department in Bismarck.

That definitely was the case in late March, when authorities in West Fargo shot and killed a treed mountain lion that was deemed potentially dangerous near a local park. The cat was a long way from the core of North Dakotas mountain lion breeding range in the Badlands and Little Missouri River Breaks.

Theres way more, say, deer hunters in North Dakota that are passionate about deer hunting and follow whats going on with deer, Tucker said. But if youre not a deer hunter, you dont really care about deer and might not be fascinated by them.

Whereas, theres just a lot of people, regardless if theyre hunters or not, that are fascinated by mountain lions.

Tucker gave an update on mountain lions in North Dakota during the Game and Fish Departments recent spring advisory board meetings for hunters and anglers held online because of COVID-19 and further discussed the iconic cats this week in a telephone interview.

Bottom line, mountain lions in the core of their western North Dakota range are holding at a level thats low but steady and acceptable both to wildlife managers and landowners, Tucker says.

Were not hearing a lot of concerns from ranchers or deer hunters who dont like to share deer with mountain lions and things like that, she said. I definitely feel, from my perspective, that weve found a very comfortable situation where were between everybodys expectations, and the population is sustaining itself at a healthy level at the same time.

In his book, The Mammals of North Dakota, UND Professor Emeritus of Biology Robert Seabloom writes that mountain lions historically occurred across the Great Plains but never were common.

There were no early records of mountain lions in eastern North Dakota, and cats that historically inhabited North Dakota west of the Missouri River had disappeared by the early 20th century, the book states.

The population likely was so low that mountain lions in North Dakota were undetectable to most people, Tucker says.

They were likely extirpated or close to there, she said. They dont have high reproductive rates. A female only produces a litter every other year, and theres probably only two kittens in each litter so it just takes a while for the population to build itself.

According to The Mammals of North Dakota, mountain lions started gaining a foothold in the western part of the state in the 1950s. By 2005, the Game and Fish Department deemed the population high enough to offer an experimental hunting season.

Game and Fish manages mountain lions by dividing the state into two zones: Zone 1 in the Badlands area encompasses the core breeding range, while Zone 2 in the rest of the state is less suitable for the cats.

North Dakota Game and Fish Department

North Dakotas mountain lion population peaked in 2011 or 2012 at a range somewhere between 100 and 275, based on results from computer modeling, Tucker said. In response, Game and Fish upped the harvest quota for cats in Zone 1 to drive the number down and slow the increase.

Current models suggest a population in the range of 50 to 60 cats.

Once the population came back down, we backed off on our hunting season harvest limits a little bit, and the population has been fairly stable, with minor fluctuations up and down from year to year, since that time, Tucker said.

Hunters shot 14 mountain lions in Zone 1 during the 2019-20 season and three cats in Zone 2. Since the inaugural season in 2005, the statewide harvest has ranged from as low as four to as many as 19 during the 2017-18 season, when a record six cats were taken in Zone 2 outside the core breeding range.

The Fort Berthold Indian Reservation also offers a season but works with Game and Fish in sharing information to manage the species, Tucker says.

North Dakota Game and Fish Department

In an effort to learn more about the high number of cats taken in Zone 2 during the 2017-18 season, Game and Fish contracted with the U.S. Forest Services Rocky Mountain Research Station in Missoula, Mont., to conduct genetic testing on mountain lions killed outside their traditional range, Tucker said.

We really got to wonder, Are these mountain lions that are coming from our breeding population, or are they coming from somewhere else like the South Dakota Black Hills or one of the mountain lion populations in Montana? she said.

Results from that testing showed about 50% of the dispersing cats came from South Dakota, 25% from Montana and the remaining 25% from North Dakota.

The numbers dont account for cats that either pass through the state safely or travel through undetected.

This is just the ones that are taken by hunters or hit by an automobile or something along those lines, she said.

Mountain lions are well known for traveling long distances, Tucker said, especially young males, a trait believed to be natures way of preventing inbreeding within a population.

Mountain lions really have turned up in all corners of the state, she said.

Results from the genetic testing have helped the department build on the knowledge base it gathered on mountain lions during a GPS tracking survey that began in 2011 and wrapped up in 2017.

As part of the survey, a partnership with South Dakota State University, Game and Fish staff and SDSU graduate students trapped and fitted 14 mountain lions with GPS collars, while 22 cats received ear tags.

The collars were programmed to provide tracking information every three to six days, Tucker said. None of the cats collared in the survey permanently dispersed from the Badlands, although a couple of cats did venture off before returning, she said.

As part of a study with South Dakota State University, 14 mountain lions were fitted with GPS collars and another 22 with ear tags. (Photo/ North Dakota Game and Fish Department)

Results from the GPS collar survey helped the department fine-tune the modeling it uses to determine population trends for mountain lions in the state. Other factors used to determine population trends include the age of cats taken by hunters, who are required to submit the carcasses to Game and Fish, and genetic analysis.

Mountain lions dont lend themselves to a lot of our traditional survey techniques, Tucker said. We cant do a roadside survey and expect to see a mountain lion. We cant get up in an airplane and do an aerial survey and expect to see a mountain lion. Theyre nocturnal, they exist in low densities on the landscape, they have large home ranges and so we really rely on a population model to tell us what the population trends are.

In other words, its not about specific numbers.

I cant stress that enough, Tucker said. People always ask me, How many mountain lions do you think we have in North Dakota? And I say I dont know.

What is known is that mountain lions conceivably can wander through any part of North Dakota at any given time. As a ballpark estimate, Tucker says Game and Fish gets 25 to 30 reports of mountain lion sightings every year in North Dakota, of which maybe one-half to one-third can be verified.

Im always fascinated, too, she said. One of the reasons we know that mountain lions are in eastern North Dakota is because of reports from the public like trail camera photos or somebody snaps a picture of one and it was there and gone.

Tucker encourages the public to report sightings using the departments online furbearer reporting form at https://gf.nd.gov/hunting/furbearers/rare-furbearer-observation.

The benefits and the costs of home DNA tests – Health and Happiness – Castanet.net

Is the wealth of information about your individual health risks worth the anxiety of knowing?

DNA testing kits have made it possible to access previously unmined information about your health. As a huge advocate of preventative medicine, Ive explored the pros and cons of accessing this wealth of information to see whether your spit is worth the price tag and the consequences.

Firstly, what is it? Companies like 23andMe offer a home-based saliva collection kit you spit in the tube and send it to the lab. From there, your DNA is extracted from the spit and a process called genotyping analyses the DNA.

You then receive a report with your health predispositions (diseases you are more likely to get due to your genes) and your carrier status of certain diseases, such as cystic fibrosis.

The most obvious benefit of getting your DNA tested is identifying your personal health predispositions. For instance, the report might indicate youre at risk of getting type 2 diabetes, or heart disease. With this information, you can make changes to your lifestyle to help prevent these diseases from occurring, such as quitting smoking, drinking less caffeine or eating less sugar.

Despite these benefits, it is important to consider the emotional stress of receiving unfortunate results. Finding out you are at high risk of Alzheimers has a huge emotional impact on an individual and their family, especially as there is little you can do to prevent it.

Personally, I wouldnt want to know Im at high risk for a disease I cant do anything about I think the anxiety the knowledge would cause wouldnt be worth the information.

Its also important to note that genealogy results arent definitive. For instance, they may identify the gene that can cause high cholesterol, which in turn can increase the risk of heart disease. However, the test doesnt take into account any other personal or environmental factors, such as your diet, exercise and lifestyle. Without input from your own family doctor or a genetic counsellor, the results cannot be taken as gospel.

The uses of genealogy DNA databases extend beyond personal use for health and ancestry information, and this is the part where I begin to question the safety of using these kits. Although companies have rigorous privacy policies, they do still keep your DNA and information in a database in order to identify future clients that may be within your family tree.

This data is vulnerable to hackers, but also to police and immigration officials. The CBSA uses genealogy DNA testing in an immigration setting to ascertain a persons identity, such as the country they originate from.

From the uses we know about, to those yet to be found Im not sure I want my DNA in a database with unknown potential.

There are also important financial implications that accompany genetic testing, such as the fact that some insurance companies now say you must disclose any genetic risk information you are aware of, which can mean higher premiums for health, life and travel insurance.

Having mused over the idea for several weeks, with my mouse hovering over the Add to Cart button more than once, Ive decided genetic testing is not for me, for now. I personally dont think you should need a genetic test to tell you to live a healthier lifestyle to exercise more, eat more greens and get better sleep.

If its something youre thinking about, or have done, I would love to hear your thoughts on it. If not, take it from me get out for a cycle or a run, spend more time with your family and eat some broccoli with a smile on your face.

84 Positive COVID-19 Cases Linked to Vancouver Fruit Processor – OPB News

UPDATE: (2:53 p.m. PT) Health officials in Clark County announced Tuesday that 84 people have tested positive for COVID-19 as part of an outbreak at a Vancouver fruit processor, Firestone Pacific Foods.

Sixty-nine employees have tested positive for COVID-19, four of whom arent Clark County residents. Another 15 people identified as close contacts of those cases have also testedpositive.

A total of 165 employees and 83 close contacts have been tested, with additional testing of employees and close contactsexpected.

The outbreak prompted Washington to pause Clark Countys request to move to Washingtons Phase 2 of reopening. It may be the largest non-health care-linked cluster of coronavirus cases in the greater Portland metroarea.

In total, 510 people have tested positive in Clark County and 25 people havedied.

The most recent available data from the Washington Department of Health show 19,265 confirmed coronavirus cases in the state and 1,050 knowndeaths.

The Oregon Health Authority reported 18 new coronavirus cases and one presumptive case in the state Tuesday. The states total number of known positive and presumptive cases is3,967.

Presumptive cases are people who have not tested positive but have COVID-19 symptoms and have had close contact with someone confirmed to be infected with thevirus.

Officials have reported no new coronavirus-related deaths for the second day in arow.

In Oregon, 148 people are known to have died fromCOVID-19.

Due to data reconciliation, one case originally reported as presumptive in Josephine County was determined to not be a case. Two other cases one in the 30-39 age group and one in the 70-79 age group were also determined not to becases.

Researchers at Oregon State University will look into Bends sewer system for genetic evidence of COVID-19 in an effort to help determine the virus prevalence in thecity.

Bend public works staff will collect sewage samples the weekend of May 30-31 as part of its Coronavirus Sewer Surveillance, the same weekend field workers from OSUs TRACE-COVID-19 project will gather nasal swab samples door-to-door inBend.

Sewer analysis results will be compared with nasal swab results to better detect the virus among symptomatic and asymptomatic carriers ofCOVID-19.

A really important step is to continue to validate the reliability of our sewer surveillance data with more traditional prevalence data from the medical community andresearchers.

Fortunately, the early indications suggest that sewer analysis is a reliable method, said Tyler Radniecki, an associate professor of environmental engineering said in astatement.

OSU said it has the lab capability to do genetic testing with a predicted turnaround time of about aweek.

The university said additional sewer surveillance projects are underway in WashingtonCounty.

In a three-sentence response to the Oregon Supreme Court, the Baker County Circuit Court Judge who vacated more than 20 of Gov. Kate Browns executive orders surrounding the states response to the coronavirus pandemic, told the court on Tuesday he wouldnt back down fromhisdecision.

I have elected to stand by my original ruling, Circuit Court Judge Matthew Shirtcliff wrote. I will not be vacating the May 18, 2020 Order Granting Preliminary Injunctive Relief and Denying Motions To Dismiss or takingotheraction.

A group of churches and eastern Oregon public officials have sued, arguing Browns executive orders exceed her authority understatelaw.

As Oregon counties continue to move forward with reopening, Portland International Airport has seen a small increase in travelers over the last twoweeks.

As states (and even other countries) begin to reopen, we expect the trends to continue slowly upward for air travel, said communications manager Susie Rantz with the Port ofPortland.

However, the virus is really in charge when it comes to air travel so its so hard to know what a few months from now might looklike.

Rantz said that passenger volumes at PDX are still down approximately 92% compared to this time last year. That decrease reached a bottom of nearly 96% inmid-April.

Airlines typically release their flight schedules on a quarterly basis, which saw dramatic reductions between April and June. Rantz said that passenger trends will become clearer when airlines update their Julyschedules.

The Oregon Employment Department announced Project Focus 100 on Tuesday, outlining a plan to address the 38,000 backlogged unemployment claims in the state.The department said it will continue to hire and train new employees, as well as assign experienced professionals on the oldest and most complexcases.

From May 29 to June 12, the agency said it will increase its outbound calls to resolve claims for people who have been waiting thelongest.

The Employment Department said it is trying out new ways of contacting people to let them know where their claims are in the system and said theyve identified ways to move claims out of processing traps that can delaythem.

Durango hatchery takes first spawn from rare cutthroat trout rescued in 416 Fire – Fort Morgan Times

DURANGO, Colo. After nearly a two-year wait, Colorado Parks and Wildlife hatchery staff and biologists in Durango have spawned a new lineage of Colorado River cutthroat trout that were rescued from a remote stream during the 416 Fire in 2018.

This marks a major milestone forCPWs on-going species conservation work in Colorado, and the result of decades of work by dedicated biologists, researchers and field staff.

Fertilized eggs of the San Juan cutthroats will hatch by mid-summer; some of the fingerlings will be placed in back-country streams in the southwest area of the state and others will be held at the Durango hatchery to start a sustainable brood stock. Now, the hatchery staff and biologists will continue the long-term effort to restore these native trout to their home waters.

Im thrilled that weve gotten a spawn from these fish, its been a long process and weve got a lot more work to do, said Jim White, aquatic biologist forCPWin Durango.

The story of these fish that hold a unique genetic marker goes back nearly 150 years and includes some serious biological detective work. Since the 1970s,CPWaquatic biologists have searched back-country streams looking for isolated populations of cutthroats Colorados native trout. In southwest Colorado in the 1980s and 1990s, biologists found cutthroat trout that were suspected to have unique characteristics in eight small streams. Back then, however, technology to analyze genetics fully was still being developed. The biologists kept their eyes on the fish and made sure non-native trout were not stocked nearby.

In 2012, researchers from the University of Colorado went to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History looking for preserved specimens of cutthroat trout that had been collected in Colorado. Two of the specimens they found were taken from the San Juan River near Pagosa Springs in 1874.

An analysis showed that the fish had genetic fingerprints specific to the San Juan River Basin.CPWresearchers then began a similar analysis of the cutthroats theyd found in southwest Colorado. By this time, genetic-analysis technology had advanced and in early 2018 scientists confirmed that the marker in the museum specimens matched the cutthroat trout recently found in the wild.

Biologists and hatchery staff then made a plan to start propagating the fish. The 416 Fire helped push the project along.

When the fire started north of Durango, biologists worried that ash and sediment run-off could kill the cutthroats in the remote streams. SoCPWworked with the San Juan National Forest to go into the area to capture the wild trout and bring them to a special isolation hatchery in Durango. Only 54 cutthroat were recovered from the fire area.

White and Durango Hatchery Manager Toby Mourning have been concerned because the fish did not produce any spawn last year and some of the fish died. But the turnaround this year is a major milestone for the restoration effort.

Were not getting a lot of eggs, but enough to provide some for a limited amount of stocking and some to start a captive population that will be sustainable, Mourning said.

In order to protect the fish,CPWis not providing details on stream locations. Biologists hope, however, that in a few years anglers will be able to find this unique cutthroat trout in the wild.

White explained that the work on this native is a significant conservation effort. In 2018, after the genetics of the fish were confirmed, he said: We always ask ourselves, What if we could go back to the days before mining, pioneer settlement and wide-spread non-native fish stocking to see what we had here? Careful work over the years by biologists, finding those old specimens in the museum and the genetic testing gave us the chance, essentially, to go back in time. Now we have the opportunity to bring this native trout back to southwest Colorado.

Ask the doctor: Is there a chance I am not my sons father? – The Standard

My wife and I can both roll our tongues but our son can't. I'm worried about his paternity (Photo: Shutterstock)

I am a 36-year-old woman and have no children, but I am planning on having some in a few years. Is it true that with advancing age I increase my chances of getting a child with Downs syndrome or cerebral palsy?

ALSO READ: Ask the doctor: Is penile enlargement surgery considered plastic surgery? Does it work?

Yes, these conditions have been associated with problematic pregnancies and abnormal foetal development. After age 35, older eggs tend to have abnormal cell division where the chromosomes may fail to separate in the correct way, leading to an excess number of expected chromosomes.

For example, in Downs syndrome, the foetus has an extra chromosome resulting in what is referred to as trisomy. Cerebral palsy is associated with complications of advanced parental age, especially the mothers. These may include miscarriages, multiple births, high blood pressure, gestational diabetes, and genetic mutations that impact brain development. Studies have also suggested that an older couple is more likely to use infertility procedures that can increase the risk of multiples and other risk factors.

I discovered that my fiances sister has albinism. How likely is it that any of our future children develops the condition?

There is a 50 percent chance your fiance is a carrier for the albinism gene. If this holds true, then there is a 25 percent chance that your future children may develop this condition.

My wife can roll her tongue (the rolling tongue gene). So can I. But our son, now 4, cant. I am worried about my childs paternity but dont want to stir the marriage yet. Do you think I should be worried or is there a genetic explanation?

There should be no cause to worry. More recent studies disputed the misleading assumption that leads to the conclusion that is worrying you. There was a study on identical twins who differed in their tongue-rolling trait, suggesting that the trait was not entirely under genomic influence as identical twins have the same genetic makeup.

I hope to get a child through a sperm bank. Do you think my request for physical characteristics of the sperm donor will help towards getting desirable traits in my future child?

ALSO READ: Why its better to have children before your 40s

Yes, most physical characteristics are easily inherited from parents to their offspring. However, this could be a mixture of traits from both the donor and the recipient.

How far is the world from genetically engineering desirable traits into people and consequently having designer babies?

It is already happening on a smaller scale for certain traits, for example women or men going to sperm banks look for super straights in their donors for IVF procedures.

The world is also moving towards precision medicine, or what is commonly known as personalised medicine where everyone has their medicine tailor-made to suit their genes and condition based on their genetic fingerprint.

With technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, the future of designer babies is possible although ethical considerations in human cloning restrict such practices and may fail to promote advancements in these technologies.

Can I influence my childrens personalities or are they predetermined before birth?

To some extent yes, but personality is influenced by various factors. One component may come from the genes and the other from environmental interactions. For example, exposure to different life circumstances greatly influences ones personality.

ALSO READ: Ask the doctor: How do I bring back the white colour of my child's discoloured teeth?

My four-year-old twins are very different. My son has a real mean streak. Hes always been like that. His sister is kind. I have been responsible for their upbringing so far. Are character traits in the genes?

The difference could be in their genetic makeup. As we know, we inherit half of our genes from each parent and different personality traits could arise from this. In addition, the contrast in their personality could emanate from their daily interactions with the external world, such as from observations.

You also have not told us if you treat the children differently whereby in most cases girls are treated kindly with lots of pampering, which is thus reflected in their behaviour. Boys who are often groomed to harden up to face the real world like men and turn out as brave warriors.

As a geneticist, do you think psychopaths are born or made?

I think it is a mixed bag of fortunes here. Psychopaths could result from nature and nurture. Several studies have pointed to the existence of genetic abnormalities in psychopaths, whereas other cases have risen purely from their upbringing. For example, we have had cases of sociopathic behaviour arising after traumatic experiences and drug addiction.Couples can undergo genetic testing to determine if they have any conditions their children can inherit (Photo: Shutterstock)

I have read a bit about genetic testing for couples, and I am considering it before we start a family. My question is, if they find something worrying (my sister died of sickle cell anaemia) can it be prevented because we know beforehand?

It may not be prevented in its entirety, but may help in early management of the outcome. It may also help in decision making whether to proceed and have children in the full knowledge that they may develop an inherited condition from parents. For your case, you could be a carrier for sickle cell disease and this prepares you to seek genetic therapy such as stem cell transplants to correct the abnormal red (sickle) cells.

I did the BRCA gene test and I have the mutated gene. What are the chances I could get ovarian or breast cancer?

A mutated BRCA gene is only an indicator of higher risk of developing either ovarian or breast cancer. It does not mean that you already have the cancer. It helps you prepare to seek and make a plan for testing and monitoring of signs of the development of these cancers so that preventative or management measures can be instituted. This may help in following a lifestyle that can reduce the chances of accelerating the development of the disease.

Is there a genetic explanation as to why children, especially firstborns, look like their fathers?

Well, it is not always the case. Physical characteristics of the offspring sometimes might be a mixture of both the mothers and fathers characteristics. There are, however, extremes where a child may look like a copy of either parent. A child is a result of the union of genes of a mother and father, and the strength of expression of these genes may differ.

There is conflicting information out there about genetically modified foods. What are the facts and fiction on this?

Genetically modified foods refer to food items whose source material production, be it plant or animal, involves intentional mixing (manipulation) of genetic material not naturally found in the pure/natural breed.

The fuss brought about by anti-GMO campaigners has been related, in my opinion, to a lack of information. The genes being included have their function known from a science point of view. However, genes may interact and the results may not be known fully. How a gene will behave in the new organism is assumed to be what is known, but it does not rule out undesired effects. However, before a gene is used in GMO, experimental tests are usually performed to understand different scenarios under which it may elicit undesired effects.
