Basically, there has been embryos created from 3 people to genetically alter certain diseases out.
Relevant quote from the article I wanted to discuss:
Only trace amounts of a person's genes come from the mitochondria, and experts said it would be incorrect to say that the embryos have three parents.
"Most of the genes that make you who you are are inside the nucleus," Chinnery said. "We're not going anywhere near that."
Your thoughts?
