    IVF BREAKTHROUGH USING 3-PERSON DNA LEADS TO 8 BABIES BORN FREE OF
    GENETIC DISEASE (3 MINUTE READ) [7]

    Eight babies were born healthy thanks to a groundbreaking new
    DNA-enhanced IVF technique aimed at preventing children from
    inheriting severe, incurable mitochondrial diseases from their
    mothers. The babies were born to seven mothers at high risk of passing
    on severe mitochondrial DNA diseases. The novel IVF method utilizes
    DNA from the mother's egg, the father's sperm, and healthy
    mitochondrial DNA from a donor. Children conceived via this technique
    inherit the vast majority of their DNA from their biological parents,
    but they also receive a minute amount of healthy mitochondrial DNA
    from a third person, a genetic alteration that will be passed down to
    future generations.
