World's first '3 person baby' born in Greece

A breakthrough in IVF treatments has recently made the impossible possible. A woman in Greece gave birth to a baby using genetic material from 3 people- 2 women, and a man. Using a technique called maternal spindle transfer, in which maternal DNA is put into the egg of a donor woman, which is then fertilised using the father’s sperm, the infertile woman was able to give birth to a healthy baby. A Spanish company called Embryotools collaborated with fertility specialists at a clinic in Athens called the Institute of Life to accomplish this task.
