This scientific/medical advancement has been under criticism for many years as many people don't like it because it interferes with religion.]]> 2020-09-24 20:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/12127671/yfttm9qdjfdjiksu/wish/777515316 The CRISPER-baby Scandal 12127671 https://padlet.com/12127671/yfttm9qdjfdjiksu/wish/777524338 There has been scandals in today's world about altering the genes of babies while they are embryos. (Cyranoski, 2019) Most of these are currently happening in only China. There has been many criminal charges for these scientist as the practices have been unsafe.

This can be used to treat diseases, like heart disease, or even change a embryos appearance.
