A Facility Should Be Established for Genetically Modified Babies

Three years ago, scientists were not yet born in China. genetics of babies made some games on it; Genetically modified babies, which made a huge impact in the scientific world, were subjected to harsh criticism. While He Jinzhou, a Chinese scientist who played with the genetics of babies, was sentenced to 3 years in prison for using gene editing technology illegally, it was stated that babies could die at an early age in research on the babies in question.

But since then, so much work has been done on gene editing technology that experts believe that gene editing technology will at some point ‘commercialized’ he foresees. This means that in the future, the number of children born with genetically modified forms will increase. Against a possible future, which resembles scenarios where people create ‘mass production’ as they wish by playing with the genetics of people in science fiction works, researchers are already facing a possible future. to take precautions He thinks we should start. Researchers in China say more needs to be done to protect children born with edited genomes; for this, they can be maintained and inspected. a facility thinks it should be built.

Researchers think errors may have occurred during the gene-editing process

Professor of philosophy at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Qiu Renzong and a bioethicist at Huazhong University of Science and Technology Lei Ruipengconducted a study examining how to care for “CRISPR babies” with their genes.

During the gene editing process your mistakes The authors of the study, which is claimed to have occurred, to possible abnormalities believes that it should be regularly ranked and analyzed against However, stating that children may not have been affected by any mistakes in the gene editing process, the authors argue that regular genome monitoring may be the best option to ensure the safety of children.

Some people feel that this may be an undue violation of children’s privacy.

Speaking to Nature magazine and expressing that his wishes are not to be affected by the fact that children’s genes have been manipulated, Qiu said that, nevertheless, one way to be sure states that it is not.

While this proposal has received a lot of support, some people overuse the privacy of children. breach thinks it can. Speaking on the subject, medical anthropologist Eben Kriksey of the Alfred Deakin Institute said: “Special guards to intense surveillance can turn into saves as.
