Human Gene Editing Legalization by 2028
CRISPR and other gene-editing technologies offer transformative potential for treating genetic diseases. Ethical, legal, and safety concerns slow adoption for therapeutic use beyond controlled trials.
Some countries may allow limited therapeutic applications under strict oversight. Full legalization for broader use faces international scrutiny and ethical debates.
My prediction: By 2028, it is unlikely that a major country will fully legalize human gene editing for therapeutic use, though targeted approvals for severe diseases may occur.
