Wasn't he the guy who was trying to find a way for HIV-positive couples to have HIV-negative babies?
Ethics are supposed to throttle human activity. That's their fucking job. That guy is a goddamn sociopath.
I honestly think that is the most important point to make. It is a fundamental truth and force the person to talk specifics. Why is it bad there?
He gave the children of HIV positive fathers, conceived via in vitro fertilization, resistance to HIV. I don't think it's as bad as everyone suspects. I'm not sure children conceived the normal way would have survived.
I thought this guy was the one doing the human throttling
Is nobody concerned that illegal experiments on babies only gets you 3 years?
Maybe they were Uyghurs so it was classified as "property damage" in Chinese law.
The devil is in the details....
You are likely thinking (as I am) that he implanted robotic arms on babies but he may have just rubbed sage oil on them for all we know
He used CRISPR to make babies immune to HIV.
Diabolical
Thanks for the info
definitely on the evil side considering he probably planed to infect them to test his theories
Nope, he had no plans to infect them. The babies had parents who were HIV-positive.
Did not have baby zombie apocalypse on my Bingo card, but thera ya go
And in what context medical experiments should be allowed on babies ?
Yet we still have default circumcisions in the US, no?
And China executed a shitload of people for political dissent...
Be careful, you might get banned from lemmy dot ml for hatespeech against dictatorships.

wait he's not a fucking parody account?? i thought he was like. larping as an umbrella corp researcher
Nah, I'm pretty sure that's the dude that used crispr on some babies years ago in an attempt to make them immune to HIV or something.
I was very surprised to hear that China arrested him for it in the first place
