New gene editing technology could make us superhuman; scientists warn of danger | Minds

New gene editing technology could make us superhuman; scientists warn of danger | Minds

 Genetic engineering is not new, but techniques have been adapting and
getting better and scientists have gotten so good at it that they can
change almost any part of the genome. Genome editing is an extremely
powerful tool that may allow scientists to change any part of the
genome, altering things like hair color, height, size and more in
humans. It may even allow us to pass genes to our children.
