News. Theres new hope tonight for thousands of families who live with the prospect of passing on inherited diseases to future generations. For the first time, scientists have successfully repaired a faulty gene in Human Embryos. They used a process known as gene editing to correct dna that causes a deadly Heart Condition. But critics are warning that the technique could, ultimately, be used to create so called designer babies. Our medical correspondent fergus walsh reports. The goal could not be more ambitious to eradicate inherited diseases. These scientists have taken an impressive first step on a long road, editing dna in Human Embryos. So how is it done . Inside the nucleus of each of ourselves is our genome, billions of pieces of dna. Its the Instruction Manual for life. The scientists were targeting a faulty gene that causes a serious Heart Condition. They fertilised a healthy egg with sperm from a man carrying the faulty gene. They then injected the Gene Editing System known as
