Chinese Scientists Modify Embryos to Resist HIV

April 09, 2016Chinese scientists have once again cloned a human embryo furthering the potential for genetically modified humans. The team utilized CRISPR/Cas9 modification techniques much like previous experiments, but this time they introduced what they hope will be an HIV resistant quality. Most genome editing technologies currently have been used to create human embryos that are resistant to targeted diseases, although many hope that the technology will be used to create super humans.
