With the rapid development of social progress and biological science,crispr-cas9 human gene editing technology has made it possible to promote the application of human gene editing embryos with its advantages of more maneuverability,convenience and accuracy.According to the different purposes of gene editing,it can be divided into medical purpose gene editing and non-medical purpose gene editing.As a result,human beings can be said to have the treatment of AIDS,genetic diseases and other serious diseases of the new weapons,and even manipulate the emerging technology of human itself.This makes the friction between science and technology and moral ethics can not be ignored.Human gene editing techniques discussed in this paper as a new type of treatment,with an incurable disease patients and people with family genetic disease brings hope,but whether it should be completely let go in the clinical application of human,and with the existing human social ethics,the equality of life,unknown risks such as the inevitable conflict,triggered a world wide attention and discussion: A series of technical and ethical issues,such as whether to allow the use of human gene editing technology,if so,to what extent,what harm it will bring,and how to avoid the abuse of human gene editing technology,have also led to different opinions on the open human gene editing technology.Therefore,in the face of the open application of human gene editing technology and the possible benefits and unpredictable consequences brought by human body,the author thinks it is necessary to ponder and discuss the possible bioethical issues.The purpose is to effectively resolve the possible conflict between gene editing technology and ethics so that the technology can effectively avoid risks and serve people.This paper mainly introduces the concepts,types,risks,measures and Suggestions of human gene editing technology.It may change the way of human evolution and contaminate the human gene pool.Issues such as violating the "right to self-determination" of future generations and widening inequality into new areas.On this basis,the author suggested that the technology and technical personnel strictly under the system of ethics and constraints of the use of certain human gene editing techniques: follow the principle of life ethics do not harm,under the premise of respecting the principle,fair principle,first of all to establish the basic consensus for the gene editing techniques,second strengthen implicit "evil" young "good" ethical constraints,the third to establish and perfect the system of the relevant system,try to avoid orbit deviates from the science and technology,better service to humans.
