Answer 2

If I were you I'd choose another topic.

There's nothing really controversial about cystic fibrosis. A girl last year did it on Crohn's Disease, and she had trouble with her paper because there was nothing to prove.

BUT, I guess you can write a thesis like, "Although many argue that cystic fibrosis is an incurable disease, gene therapy may prevent the disease, whilst opening a door to hope." That's just off the top of my head because I don't know much about it. I'm sure you could find good arguments.

Then, you could make two paragraphs about the disadvantages, like using stem cells in the womb.. ect.

Finally, write three paragraphs on what it would consist of, the advantages, and a throw in a little anecdote or something.

Good luck :)
