English term or phrase: uso de 'concerns' en este contexto
First and foremost, creating children in this manner is unethical at this time because available scientific evidence indicates that such techniques are not safe at this time. Even if concerns about safety are resolved, however, significant concerns remain about the negative impact of the use of such a technology on both individuals and society.

Mi versión:
Ante todo, el hecho de crear niños de esta manera es poco ético por el momento, puesto que la evidencia científica disponible indica que dichas técnicas no son seguras por ahora. Sin embargo, si se resolviera incluso los problemas sobre la seguridad quedarían inquietudes importantes acerca del impacto negativo del uso de dicha tecnología tanto en los individuos como en la sociedad.

ADORO la palabra concerns!!!!!

Es la señora de las mil caras, pero ojo que a veces en español avanzamos de más al traducirla.

Humilde opinión, en este contexto...yo traduciría "aspectos"

incertidumbres


Explanation:
"Concerns" aquí no tiene el significado de "inquietudes' (worries, anxieties) sino el de "incertidumbres", cuestiones sin resoluciones fáciles.

Problemas se puede usar.
