Abstract
In 2015, the UK became the first country permitting the clinical application of mitochondrial replacement techniques (MRT). Here, we explore how MRT have led to diverging international policy. In response, we recommend focused regulatory efforts coupled with United Nations (UN) leadership to build international consensus on the future of MRT.Keywords: epigenetics; germline modification; germline regulation; mitochondrial disease.; mitochondrial donation; mitochondrial replacement techniques
