ASHG POSITION STATEMENT Human Germline Genome Editing
With CRISPR/Cas9 and other genome-editing technologies, successful somatic and germline genome editing are becoming feasible. To respond, an American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) workgroup developed this position statement, which was approved by the ASHG Board in March 2017. The workgroup included representatives from the UK Association of Genetic Nurses and Counsellors, Canadian Associatio...
متن کاملGoing Germline: Mitochondrial Replacement as a Guide to Genome Editing
Mitochondrial replacement (MR) serves as a crucial test case and learning guide for the scientific, ethical, and regulatory challenges of future reproductive breakthroughs. The lessons learned from the regulatory review process of MR over the last decade promise to enrich the emerging dialog over genome editing.
متن کاملEthics and germline gene editing.
T he current kerfuffle around the use of CRISPR/Cas9 and other gene editing technologies in human germline research is the latest in a series of related controversies at the intersection of science, medicine, and ethics [1]. Soon after a prominent ad hoc group of scientists called for a moratorium on clinical applications of germline gene editing [2], a research group from China published an ar...
متن کاملSelf-evident & Trivial
In recent years, combinations of terms have become popular where one component is „computational“ or some relative of it, whereas the other is „aesthetics“ or „art“ or „creativity“, etc. The Dagstuhl seminar, to which this personal note owes its appearance, had the number 09291 and the title Computational Creativity: an Interdisciplinary Approach. Good old C. P. Snow would probably like such te...
متن کاملSome poleward movement of British native vascular plants is occurring, but the fingerprint of climate change is not evident
Recent upperward migration of plants and animals along altitudinal gradients and poleward movement of animal range boundaries have been confirmed by many studies. This phenomenon is considered to be part of the fingerprint of recent climate change on the biosphere. Here I examine whether poleward movement is occurring in the vascular plants of Great Britain. The ranges of plants were determined...
