FIRST GENETICALLY Edited BABIES ARE BORN IN CHINA

in science •  8 years ago 

While it is an interesting article, I question the veracity of this post's title. Genetically edited embryos were created in China, but they were not brought to term; they were sacrificed because it is too dangerous to do that because we don't know enough about the science. Where is there evidence for the claim?

FIRST GENETICALLY Edited BABIES ARE BORN IN CHINA

Three parent babies with modified genetics are documented, but babies with CRISPR/Cas9 "editing" of their DNA is not yet a reality.
