@mcc Sorry I have to tell you, but I don't think so. In my experience, scientists hate ethics commitees and every kind of instances that question if it is good to do certain things. One of the very few exceptions is clone technology on humans, and even this has been done, by scientists who like what they do.

The truth is that very intelligent persons are not necessarily morally good persons. There might be some who won't do it. But you will always find someone to do your dirty work.
