A Chinese researcher who ignited controversy in 2018 after claiming to have created the first genetically edited human infants was recently spotted in Shenzhen, China.

According to He, the babies — twin girls named Lulu and Nana — were genetically modified as embryos with a gene-editing tool called CRISPR-Cas9; He used CRISPR to snip out a gene and thereby render the infants resistant to HIV.

Reports claimed He was placed under effective house arrest in Shenzhen after making an appearance at the Second International Summit on Human Genome Editing in Hong Kong last Wednesday.

I sincerely do not understand the decision of the Chinese government.
This man made a big breakthrough in science, to arrest him because of this,is wrong!

Infants are completely healthy, and one of them have immunity against HIV,another baby has not received this due insensitiveness to CRISP.

Jiankui He, is a great scientist, he can make the world a better place,protect all of us and our children.
I urge everyone to participate in this petition and release this person, until it's not too late, and give him more opportunities to study the genomes.
