Abstract:
Gene editing technology has a broad development prospect in medical research and appli-cation,and it is a frontier hot spot in the field of biomedical research worldwide,especially in the field of be-havioral medicine,making it possible to treat and prevent major diseases such as brain diseases,neurodegen-erative diseases and behavioral psychology diseases. But we must recognize that gene-editing technology poses new threats to bio-security while benefiting humanity. This paper summarizes the development and application prospect of gene editing technology in the field of behavioral medicine,summarizes the ethical and relevant institu-tional problems and international regulatory policies faced by the rapid development of gene editing technology, and finally puts forward relevant regulatory suggestions for the development of gene editing technology.
