The scientist who co-created CRISPR isn’t ruling out engineered babies someday

Humans are about to transcend nature and evolution!

I have suggested here several times that one of the first genes to be removed from the human genome is the sneezing gene. 😄 And what about eagle eyes and much better memory? 😄

"Jennifer Doudna is the co-discoverer of CRISPR editing, the revolutionary method for engineering genes that, 10 years after her original breakthrough, is now making its way into human trials.

There’s an expanding list of applications in diagnostics and engineered plants; already researchers are exploring potential treatments to cure sickle cell disease, blindness, and liver disease. In 2020, she shared a Nobel Prize with fellow scientist Emmanuelle Charpentier. The two became the sixth and seventh women to win the award in chemistry. ..."
