Abstract:Gene editing has caused great controversy on global scale, and it is of urgent need to strengthen legal regulation in this regard. Gene editing is of great significance in helping precision medicine and improving human health, but it has huge potential risks. In awe of life, and in view of the current technical immaturity, the law regulating genetic editing must be in agreement with the modesty and restraint principle and defend the bottom line of human dignity. At the same time, the law should be moderately open, leaving space for scientific progress and social development. At present, the law should only offer limited permit to the researches and applications of genetic editing whose safety has been verified, including gene editing and somatic gene editing in basic research and preclinical research. The clinical trials and applications of germline gene editing and gene editing for enhancement should be banned at present, but the ban may be lifted in the future when their safety is verified and social consensus is reached and effective supervisions are in place.
