Chinese officials and scholars have condemned the approval of the genetics, who said, actually what he did the 1st gen edited kids.

The authorities ordered an investigation to be carried out because the hospital associated with the study presented, in fact, that its ethical encouragement was forged.

The state health Commission said on the first day of the week that it was "quite excited"and ordered the provincial health bureaucrats"to investigate and clarify the matter immediately".

The government Committee on medical ethics in Shenzhen said, in fact, that he is investigating the case, as well as the provincial health Commission of Guangdong province, reports the state media Southern Metropolis Daily.

More than 100 scientists said in an open message, in fact that the introduction of technology CRISPR-Cas9 to edit genes in human embryos is considered risky, unnecessary, damaging to the reputation and development of biomedical companies in China.

CRISPR-Cas9 is a development that allows a scientist to essentially cut and paste DNA, raising hopes for genetic adjustments to diseases. However, there are still fears on the pretext of its security and ethics.

Pandora's box
In videos posted online, the scientist Hae Cisangkuy defended what, in his texts, he managed to edit the embryonic genes, in order to help defend the twin girls born in a given month, from HIV, the microbe that causes AIDS.

"Pandora's box was not closed. We still have the opportunity to have a glimmer of hope to shut it down before it's too late," the researchers said in their own message, a picture of which was located on the Chinese news website The Paper.

"Educational program for biomedical ethics this study for example referred to is only only. Carrying out specific experiments on a person can be described only as madness", - is told in the Chinese-Language message signed by about 120 scientists.

Ian Janigan, doctor of the Institute of Fudan, said Reuters, in fact that he put his signature in a message, due to the fact in fact that editing of the genes was "quite dangerous".

Genetic Chinese conversation and Chinese conversation of studies of stem cells said in his own statement, actually what a geneticist was acting as "the individual", and his work gave "a great danger to the protection of subjects of research."

"We believe, in fact, that the study, led by him, strongly contradicts both the Chinese rules, for example, and the consensus reached by the international scientific community," - said in a statement 2 groups, posted online.

He, who is obliged to speak at the summit for editing the human genome at the Institute of Hong Kong on Wednesday, gave no response to a request by Reuters about the comments.

Shenzhen Harmonicare hospital listed in the online registry of clinical tests of China, gave ethical promotion for the experience, denied, in fact what ever took part in any of the clinical operations associated with the "babies, edited genes."

'Very shocked'
The signatures on the online form were suspected of forgery, and" in fact, there was no corresponding meeting of the Committee on medical ethics of the hospital,"the Hong Kong firm Harmonicare Medical Holdings said in a statement.

Midday Institute of science and technology, where he took the place of associate Professor, still said, in fact that he did not know about the research plan and in fact that he was on vacation without pay since February.

The Shenzhen Metropolitan science and innovation Committee, a city Foundation that was still listed in the clinical testing registry as supporting the screening, said in a statement on the first day of the week that it had never participated in the plan.

Xu Nanping, Vice Minister at the Ministry of science and technology of China, told reporters that he was" quite shocked" when he heard what he said, adding that this work had not been allowed since 2003.

The details of the case are still unclear, Xu said.

"We don't know if it's true work or fake. In case it is possible, it is absolutely forbidden in China."

The official Xinhua news Agency said that ethics is impossible to avoid.

"The scientific study is never completed ... but this does not mean that it is possible to renounce the morality of science or that it is possible to ignore ethical generally recognized measures," the Agency comments in public networks.

The Committee organizing the Hong Kong conference, where he is obliged to speak-the Second international summit on editing the human genome-said in a statement on the first day of the week, in fact, that he was informed only about the work on the genes of twin girls.

"Our task is to help ensure that serious studies on the editing of the human genome are carried out," the Committee said.
