Las tijeras de… ¿Dios?

Abstract

even before the discovery of the existence of genes, science fiction writers were already curious about the ability to modify the genetic code of living beings and its ethical implications. Dragon Island already raised the ethical dilemma posed by genetic modification today known as genetic engineering. The continuous interest in expanding knowledge about the human genome and the different genes encoded has driven progress in DNA sequencing and from research, interests have been directed towards a greater understanding of the function of genes and progress in the most precise genetic editing possible.
