Human Gene Editing: 'There is Tremendous Promise for this Powerful Technology' - by Author Interview: Jessie Wingard/ Sci-Tech/ DW (Deutsche Welle) / dw.com
"Human gene editing allows scientists to delete, repair or replace bits of cell DNA in a biological form of cut and paste. Harvard Medical School Professor George Daley says this could one day help treat acute conditions.
In a landmark decision on Monday, Britain's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority gave researchers approval to conduct gene editing experiments on human embryos.
Scientists will not be creating babies, with the modified embryos destroyed after seven days. The goal, researchers say of the work, is to better understand human development in a bid to improve fertility treatments and prevent miscarriages. DW spoke with Harvard Medical School professor and director of the Stem Cell Transplantation Program at Boston Children's Hospital, George Daley, following the announcement..."
