Hi All,

As I'm sure many of you have already heard, a Chinese scientist has claimed to have made the first genome-edited babies (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-07545-0). Earlier today, he spoke at the Second International Summit on Human Genome Editing, which was followed by a Q and A session.

Since there is no seminar tomorrow, will be showing the video of his presentation and the following Q and A session tomorrow at around 2:30 pm (after journal club is over) in Room 218.

I'm sure there will be a lively discussion, so we look forward to seeing you there!
