New research from ETH Zürich in Switzerland could see future wearable devices (with perhaps a few implants and a touch of genetic engineering) boost our health directly. Fitness trackers help you stay healthy by keeping count of your steps and monitoring your heart rate, driving you on to hit those cardio goals.

Recombinant DNA technologies and genetically modified biological agents are being adapted for a wide scope of therapeutic applications, and their use is becoming increasingly common in clinical trials. Synthetic mRNA-based therapeutics used in clinical research today also fall into this self-limiting class of recombinant therapeutics.

Gene therapy research is exciting and full of promise, but because of the risks involved, it’s also highly regulated, requiring an institutional biosafety committee (IBC) to provide additional oversight and risk assessment. The IBC also reviews to confirm a comprehensive risk mitigation plan is in place prior to starting the research.

The use of engineered genetic materials in clinical trials is rapidly expanding, with potential applications for genetic vaccines, gene-modified cellular therapies, and gene therapies. A key part of the IBC’s evaluation is assessing the risks posed by the engineered genetic materials.

The NIH Guidelines also stipulate that at least two members of each IBC come from the surrounding community and be unaffiliated with the institution where the research is occurring apart from their membership on the IBC. Many of those original concerns of the 1970s and 1980s surrounding genetic engineering have lessened over time.
