Human Genetic Engineering

Human genetic engineering is the manipulation of an organism's genome by direct intervention in the genetic material to alter the hereditary traits or to produce a genetically modified organism (GMO). It involves introducing, deleting or substituting genes or genetic material to create desirable changes in an organism. It can be done manually, through the use of special tools or through the use of genetic engineering techniques such as gene-splicing and recombinant DNA technology. Human genetic engineering has a variety of potential uses and benefits, including the potential to treat or cure genetic diseases, improve agriculture and food security, increase the efficiency of industrial processes and create new medicinal drugs and therapies. Despite its potential benefits, it can also raise ethical issues such as what constitutes a correct use of the technology and its potential to create genetically enhanced individuals with advantages above natural normal standards.
