Ground breaking genetic and biological research these days seems incredibly ripe for claims that have to be soon retracted. Looks like the successful use of CRISPR technology on human embryos
may be one of these:
Doubts have surfaced about a landmark paper claiming that human embryos
were cleared of a deadly mutation using genome editing. In an article1
posted to the bioRxiv preprint server on 28 August, a team of prominent
stem-cell scientists and geneticists question whether the mutation was
actually fixed.
