- Authors
Khan, Sikandar Hayat
- Abstract
Assessment of all possible human and animal genome editing on germ lines with background of "molecular bioterro-rism" within our and global community. iv. The rapidly improving genome editing methods along with synthetic genomics has emerged as a double-edged weapon where on one side it opens newer therapeutic avenues to cure disease, but also its malicious use could results in disasters of limitless magnitudes 2. "He Jiankui affair" is still one of the genome editing dilemma widely criticized for ethical concerns emerging from germ line editing two human embryos for HIV using Cluster Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) Cas technology 6. 2.
