RE: Genetic Engineering: How Would You Modify Your 'Ideal' Child If You Could Change Its DNA?

in #life7 years ago

One was born with it and was alive for 2 years. Then they took and fertilized eggs in a lab environment and got 7 potential offspring but then kept two of them that were healthy. They put those in the mother and then she had those and they kept stem cells from the new twins to cure the kid that was a couple years old. It was nuts. It was experimental and cost millions of dollars.

AMAZING! Thanks for elaborating.

Yeah I was blown away when I saw a documentary about it.

WOW! That's even crazier than I thought. That is some next level stuff. I'm not even sure how I feel. Happy they cured the living baby or horrified so many needed to die?

Yeah it is pretty trippy because they threw the other embryos away because they had sickle cell anemia.
