Human Genome Editing Initiative
The National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Medicine launched this initiative in 2015 to inform decision-making related to recent advances in human genome-editing research. Activities under this initiative include two international summits (in 2015 and 2018), a consensus study released in 2017, and the consensus report of an international commission (2020). A third international summit took place in London, UK in March 2023.
