Biomedical Scinece and Research Journals | The Loopholes in Chinese Law Reflected in the First Genetically Edited Babies
He Jiankui, an associate professor at the Southern University
of Science and Technology of China was named one of the top
ten technology persons by the British Science Journal “Nature”
in its electronic version in 2018, and he was selected because
of the genetically edited babies that had received widespread
condemnation both in China and around the world. The “Science”
magazine even ranked this incident as the first of three scientific
breakdowns in 2018.
On November 26, 2018, the team of He Jiankui announced that
two genetically edited babies conducted by their team were born in
China. On November 28, He Jiankui claimed at the 2nd International
Summit of Human Genome Editing that two little girls who had been
genetically edited, “Lulu and Nana were born healthy.” He admitted
that the experimental data was leaked, and the research was not
peer-reviewed. His team conducted several human trials.
