It is weird to be talking about that on the ship. I mean, if she had a genetic disease or needed to be "tuned down" due to enhancements, wouldn't that have happened before she gets a notable position on a starship?

I would tend to think so, so this is an odd exchange anyway. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

This is Star Trek, she probably got a genetic disease on her last away mission!

Fair point, but the patient in the trailer is La'an Noonien-Singh, Khan's descendant, so I think any genetic tweaking is due to her enhanced heritage.This is Star Trek, she probably got a genetic disease on her last away mission!

I'm looking forward to it. Discovery went downhill for me after season three. While I'm enjoying Picard, I know that it's going to end after three seasons, and is limited to Picard's story.

And where does Dr. Phil Boyce fit in?

Apparently he doesn't which is very strange, given that he was chief medical officer in the original pilot. Maybe he found himself a bar and settled down?

Or, they are giving her a slight modification for an away mission - which can then bring up the question of why that's okay, but full modification isn't. That's a good Trek moral question.
Oh, that's simple - Dr. Boyce is already gone. The mission to Talos IV has already happened, so he may have retired or moved to another assignment.

It will be interesting to see if the mention Talos IV as being in the past, or simply don't mention it at all.
