Another Woman Is Pregnant With a Gene Edited Embryo

12-03-2018 • https://www.nextbigfuture.com

During his presentation of the CRISPR gene editing of human embryos, the Chinese scientist said there is another woman currently pregnant with a gene edited embryo.

He Jiankui is an associate professor at the Southern University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen. He did not break any international regulations but CRISPR editing of human embryos was a break with convention.

"There's a fairly tight consensus from what is and is not acceptable in genome editing as of now, and He's reported work represents a departure from that," said David R. Liu, professor of chemistry and chemical biology at Harvard University, who has pioneered improving versions of CRISPR.
