"Statement from ARRIGE Steering Committee on the possible first gene-edited babies"

ARRIGE

The gene-editingexperiment on human embryos resulting in the birth of the first gene-edited twin girls, possibly conducted in China by the researcher Jiankui He, has shocked the entire scientific community. The ARRIGE Steering Committee wants to express its stern condemnation of these experiments, apparently carried out with no required ethics oversight, review and approval, and without institutional authorizations and permission from authorities.
