A controversial technique that lets scientists 'edit' genes in a human embryo has been successfully used for the first time in the US.
在美国首次成功应用了一个有争议的技术，允许科学家“编辑”人类胚胎中的基因。
The effort involved changing the DNA of a group one-cell human embryos with the 'cut and paste' gene-editing technique known as CRISPR.
通过一种被称作CRISPR（Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats，常间回文重复序列丛集--译者注）的基因编辑技术进行“剪切和粘贴”来尝试修改一组单个人类胚胎细胞。
The technique means the next generation may benefit from powerful gene therapies that can dexe or repair flawed genes.
该技术意味着下一代可能受益于强大的基因治疗，可以去除或修复有缺陷的基因。
It could act as a golden bullet for diseases like cancer HIV and genetic conditions such as Huntington's disease.
它可以作为治疗诸如癌症、HIV和遗传疾病如亨廷顿氏病等疾病的低费高效解决方案。
But some countries have signed a convention prohibiting the practice based on concerns it could be used to create 'designer babies'.
但是一些国家已经签署了一项禁止这种做法的公约，该公约基于人们担心它可以用来制造“设计婴儿”。
