Genetics - Techniques in Genetics
Gene Therapy
- Gene therapy seeks to alter genes to correct genetic defects and thus prevent or cure genetic diseases.
- R. Michael Blaese, W. French Anderson and Kenneth Culver at a press conference announcing the start of the first gene therapy trial for treating children with severe combined immunodeficiency, 13 September 1990.
Genome Editing
Genome editing (also called gene editing) is a group of technologies that give scientists the ability to change an organism’s DNA. These technologies allow genetic material to be added, removed, or altered at particular locations in the genome.
CRISPR-Cas9
CRISPR stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short ....
