This set of world-building prompts/questions is a follow-up to the previous one regarding medicine (can read it HERE) and focuses on the sci-fi/modern genre, to go alongside the sci-fi medical-related PDF I brought out this week.
Whilst this set is themed around sci-fi/modern settings, with some tweaking could be used for others genres as well, replacing technology with magic-items for example.
- Is genetic manipulation present?
- What is the most difficult-to-treat condition and what makes it hard to treat?
- Is cloning for medical reasons tolerated?
- Is organ/body part donating after death “opt-in/optional” or “opt-out/mandatory?”
- Are there any famous surgeons/medical practitioners and why are they well known?
- What is the public view on cybernetics, bionics, implants for medical reasons?
- What is the name (and details) of the organisation that oversees medical practitioners/sets rules & protocols etc?
- What is the most advanced piece of medical technology called and what is it used for?
- What procudures are banned/restricted and why?
- What type of cosmetic surgery or augementation is available?
Bonus = How is everything from salaries to equipment paid for?
