Scientists ready to create genetically modified babies from three parents

Pending approval from the appropriate regulatory authorities, biotech scientists are gearing up to start manufacturing genetically modified (GM) human babies within the next two years, according to BBC News. A novel form of in vitro fertilization (IVF) that involves combining the eggs of two different women with the sperm of one man could soon be made publicly available as a way to prevent deadly mitochondrial diseases.
The body’s energy powerhouses, mitochondria are absolutely essential for life. When they don’t work properly, a person is unable to manufacture enough energy to function properly, leading to muscle weakness and loss, heart failure, blindness, and potentially even death. But reconstructing human embryos using science could provide a viable solution.
A scientific panel assembled by the Human Fertilization and Embryology Authority (HFEA) in the U.K. recently took a closer look at the technology to assess its safety. While it was unable to determine without a shadow of a doubt that the process is safe, the panel claims to have observed positive developments when the unhealthy mitochondria of the actual parents was replaced that of the donor parents.
“The direction of travel still suggests that it is all safe, but we don’t know what’s around the corner so we’re being a little cautious,” stated Professor Robin Lovell-Badge from the Medical Research Council (MRC), which was in charge of the research.
