Should human germ line editing be allowed? Some suggestions on the basis of the existing regulatory framework

6 Aug 2018

Abstract excerpt

The application of genetic editing techniques for the prevention or cure of disease is a highly promising tool for the future of humanity. However, its implementation contains a number of ethical and legal challenges that should not be underestimated. On this basis, some sectors have already asked for a veto on any intervention that modifies the human germ line, while supporting somatic line editing. In this...
