Abstract
During a meeting held in Trento, Italy in March 2017, and organised by the COST Action CHIP ME (IS1303) to discuss about ELSI of genome-editing, many different positions emerged on the possibility to intervene on reproduction and especially on the human embryo. At the time, the Nuffield Council on Bioethics had commissioned a background paper on genome editing, and the corresponding Working Group had launched an open call for evidence. This short paper is the response to this call, summarizing the main ideas discussed by a group of scholars from diverse disciplines.
