Research Ethics and Policy Series (REPS) | Jonathan D. Moreno, PhD
Gene editing and geopolitics
The controversy about the gene edited babies in China happens to have coincided with increasing tensions between the US and China and intensified competition in the life sciences, including legal action against some Chinese scientists based in the US. In this talk I sketch out the background geopolitical issues that have received little attention but that provide context for the regulation of CRISPR and related technologies.
