Aimed at K-12 students and people of any age curious about the how the revolutionary CRISPR gene-editing works, the DIY kits cost just $2 a piece (about $40 for a classroom). ...
In February 2020, a US trial showed safe CRISPR gene editing on three cancer patients. [38] In October 2020, researchers Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer Doudna were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their work in this field. [39] [40] They made history as the first two women to share this award without a male contributor. [41] [5]
CRISPR has the ability to create libraries of thousands of precise genetic mutations and can identify new tumors as well as validate older tumors in cancer research. Genome-scale CRISPR-Cas9 knockout (GeCKO) library targeting 18,080 genes with 64,751 unique guide sequences identify genes essential for cell viability in cancer.
CAR-T immunotherapy is an ex vivo procedure, which means that the patient's immune cells (in this case T-cells) are extracted and edited using designer nucleases. [57] While TALEN system development is expensive and time-consuming, research and engineering modifications have drastically limited their rate of off-target interaction.

In February 2020, a US trial safely showed CRISPR gene editing on 3 cancer patients. [14] In 2020 Sicilian Rouge High GABA, a tomato that makes more of an amino acid said to promote relaxation, was approved for sale in Japan.
Victoria Gray was the first patient ever to be treated with the gene-editing tool CRISPR for sickle-cell disease. [1]This marked the initial indication that a cure is attainable for individuals born with sickle-cell disease and another severe blood disorder, beta-thalassemia.
