Three-parent baby born in first ever clinical trial to test the technique: Woman, 32, who had 4 failed IVF attempts welcomes healthy 6lb boy



A woman has given birth to a 'three-parent baby' in the first ever clinical trial to test the controversial procedure.
The 32-year-old Greek woman had four failed IVF attempts before she heard about the trial by Spanish doctors.
The Barcelona-based team used a technique called maternal spindle transfer (MST) to put DNA from one of her eggs into a donor's egg before it was fertilized with sperm.
On Wednesday, the team announced the woman had given birth to a 6.5-pound boy at 7.46am on April 9, and both mother and baby are in good health.
The milestone has been hailed as a breakthrough that could get around female infertility issues while preserving the mother's genetic material.
