Perhaps I'm being to scientific, but I'm wondering what the ethical fuss is about. Though mitochondria are organelles rather than organs, this procedure feels more like an organ transplant than an unethical pursuit in genetic engineering. As far as I know, mitochondrial DNA does not interact with Human DNA at all. If I'm wrong, could you set me straight? Thank you for this fascinating and informative post!
