It can go both ways. Many people have been helped due to advances in genetic knowledge, which has allowed us to further our treatment for many medical conditions.

Billions of people's lives have been saved or helped due to vaccinations, which have pretty much wiped out diseases like polio and mmr. Without advances in genetic knowledge, developing and improving these medicines would be impossible.

However, there are risks to genetic experimentation. Since it's not perfect, there are possible side-affects and things that could go wrong, which is why medicines are extensively tested before available to the public.

There is also controversy in stem cell research. Many believe that this is morally wrong for the baby, but so far scientists have found no major side-affects or harm to the baby from this type of research.
