Professor Robert Winston

Zeinab Badawi meets Professor Robert Winston, one of the pioneers of the IVF technique that revolutionised infertility treatment. Are 'three-parent babies' a revolution too far?

The UK has become the first country in the world to legalise the creation of what are commonly known as 'three-parent babies'. The process allows mothers who carry rare but fatal genetic disorders to have children without passing on the diseases. Opponents say the change has been introduced too soon and marks a slippery slope towards designer babies. Hardtalk speaks to Professor Robert Winston - one of the main pioneers of the IVF technique that revolutionised infertility treatment. Are 'three-parent babies' a revolution too far?
