WHO Recommends Global Gene Editing Database

WHO Recommends Global Gene Editing Database

Voice of America
Monday, July 12, 2021 5:44 PM GMT

He was found guilty in December 2019 of conducting “illegal medical practices” and sentenced by a Chinese court to three years in prison.  WHO said all genome editing should be made public and recommends a whistleblowing system in which scientists could report unreported genome editing.

Archaeologists use song to herald findings in Guinea-Bissau dig

Bubacar Sane, a son of Tombon Sana who is the guardian of the Kansala site, rests at the site of the now-gone city of Kansala, capital of the Kingdom of Kaabu, in Guinea-Bissau, Sept. 24, 2024. Nino Galissa, a seventh-generation griot — or oral historian — composed the musical version of the Kansala 2024 excavation report. Here, he plays a traditional instrument known as a kora at his home in Bissau, Guinea-Bissau, Nov. 28, 2024. Ibou Sane, a son of the guardian of the Kansala site, shows a site where warriors would most likely have come to bless their swords before going into battle, in Guinea-Bissau, Sept. 24, 2024. Residents of nearby Durabali, Guinea-Bissau, walk past the entrance sign to the site of the now-gone city of Kansala, the capital of the Kingdom of Kaabu, on Sept. 24, 2024.
