Resumen de Nacimiento de los dos primeros bebés modificados genéticamente: Análisis del tratamiento de la noticia en España desde el punto de vista de la comunicación de la ciencia
- español
El final de 2018 nos trajo la noticia del nacimiento de dos gemelas modificadas genéticamente que inundó las portadas de todo el mundo. El objetivo de este trabajo no es abordar el debate ético al respecto, aunque es inevitable entrar levemente en los hechos, sino analizar algunas de las múltiples piezas producidas alrededor de este acontecimiento, principalmente en España, y estudiarlas para ver cómo se ha producido el proceso de comunicación en ciencia.

The end of 2018 brought us the news of first gene-edited babies birth, which flooded the headlines all around world. The news spread through the mass media in radio, press and television, as well as magazines and other scientific forums. But they were not the first one, but Internet. The media picked it up and analyzed it: not the fact itself, but the reason for its publication in a media different from the one traditionally used by science, producing an ethical debate on both levels. And it was done under a critical spirit and away from demagogy. The goal of this work is to analyze the treatment of this news in the media, mainly in Spain, to verify how the process of communication of science has taken place, analyzing how it has been affected by the current historical moment.
