A virtual deliberative public engagement study on heritable genome editing among South Africans: Study protocol.
This article outlines the protocol for a prospective study for virtual deliberative public engagement on heritable genome editing in humans. The study intends to create a platform for a diverse group of 25-30 South Africans to engage with a facilitator and each other on 15 policy questions regarding...
