This wasn’t because scientist decided one day to just go head with the procedure but this was due to the mother having Leigh syndrome, which is a rare genetic disorder effecting the nervous system.
The parents sought the help of New Hope Fertility Center in New York who performed a ‘spindle nuclear transfer’ where nucleus from one of the mothers egg is removed and inserted into a donors egg which already had it’s nucleus removed. The resulting egg is finally fertilized with the father’s sperm and an embryo is implanted into the mother. A baby boy was born nine months later.
